PPIS As-Salaam Family Support Centre ✓ ACRA Verified

PPIS As-Salaam Family Support Centre's pricing is not publicly listed. Community-based and social-service counselling centres in Singapore often operate on a sliding-scale or subsidised fee model, which may differ from private practice rates. It is worth asking directly whether fees are means-tested, whether a first consultation is charged, and whether package rates apply for ongoing sessions. Confirm also whether a no-show or late-cancellation fee applies, as this varies between providers. See the full counselling cost guide for Singapore →

Many counselling centres, particularly those affiliated with social-service organisations, accept self-referrals as well as referrals from GPs, schools, or social workers. It is advisable to call ahead and describe the presenting concern so the centre can confirm whether it falls within their scope of practice and assign an appropriate counsellor. If you intend to make an insurance claim for the sessions, a GP referral letter is often required by insurers. For complex or clinical conditions such as depression, anxiety disorders, or trauma, confirming that the counsellor holds a recognised qualification (e.g. registered with the Singapore Association for Counselling) will help ensure the support is appropriate.

Counselling in Singapore is not yet a statutorily regulated profession, meaning there is no single mandatory licence equivalent to the Singapore Medical Council or the Allied Health Professions Council. The key voluntary credentialling bodies are the Singapore Association for Counselling (SAC), which awards Registered Counsellor status, and the Singapore Register of Psychologists (SRP) for psychologists. No regulatory licences are listed for PPIS As-Salaam Family Support Centre in the current data. It is recommended that you ask the centre directly for the named counsellor's qualifications, years of practice, and professional membership before proceeding. Confirm the practitioner's credentials match your needs — particularly if trauma, grief, or family-system work is involved.
