Dr. Glenn Graves has been counselling expatriate families in Southeast Asia since 2004.

Glenn holds a PhD in Psychology with specialisation in Creativity and Existential-Humanistic Integrative Psychotherapy and believes that being creatively adaptive is an essential component in healing. His Master’s Degree focused on healing approaches for victims of human trafficking. This laid the foundation for a career focused on healing trauma and communities in crisis. He specialises in EMDR (eye movement desensitisation reprocessing) which is effective in replacing any negative self-belief with something more realistic and helpful. Addiction, anxiety, self-esteem, depression, grief, phobias, etc. can be drastically shifted to a functional and healthy state in short amount of time.

He is an accredited facilitator for the FOCCUS marriage preparation and enrichment programme, and is a member of the Singapore Psychological Society. Glenn has been trained as a crisis responder by the National Organization for Victim Assistance.

We are committed to every individual and couple, using a broad range of techniques. Whatever your challenge is, we are here to provide you with emotional and mental support on your journey.

All our counsellors are Certified Master Practitioners registered with APACS (Association of Psychotherapists and Counsellors of Singapore), SAC (Singapore Association of Counsellors) and/or ANZICA (Australian and New Zealand Infertility Counsellor Association) and a variety of memberships according to their special interest (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Coaching, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, EMDR, Fertility, Gottman’s Couples Therapy, Grief & Loss, Hypnobirthing, Hypnotherapy, PTSD, Sleep disorder, Solution-focused Brief Therapy, Trauma).

Since 2004 my passion has been helping married couples to live a more meaningful and fulfilling individual and family life. More than 400 couples of different cultures, with their stories, have equipped me with countless of insights and knowledge that helped the building of my applying marriage counselling model. My Intersystem tailor-made Model of the Marriage creates a sustainable breakthrough in the struggling couples, helping them organically progress and re-design the relationship they always wished.

Often, marriage deteriorates to the point of no return before partners even decide that something must be done. Waiting does not help improve your marriage, very often is too late! Successful couples develop through a continuous process of self-study, education, trust, respect, commitment, love, experience, forgiveness and a sustainable healthy intimacy.

Love and romance is what we all long for, but make no mistake, in The Business of Marriage, marriage is work!

What is coaching?

Coaching deals with the client’s present state and provides guidance to a more desirable future. The relationship between coach and client is co-creative, where the coach helps client discover own answers. The coach stands with the client helping him/her identifying challenges, they then work together to turn challenges into victories. The client is held accountable to reach his/her desired goals.

Your coach is your #1 fan.

I am a psychoanalyst and I like to work with individuals, families, couples, teenagers and older children and I also give workshops on family matters. I started my journey through Freud & Lacan, but today I gather to my work a lot using broader concepts of psychoanalysis of contemporary thinkers like Winnicott, Ferenczi, the relational thinkers like Lewis Aron, Steve Mitchell and Joyce Slochower.

My compromise is to always be learning and updated among the recent theories and modalities, filtering what is serious and what is relevant to a deeper construction with my patients that can result on good understanding of themselves. I don’t believe in BandAid therapy, or any method of “easy psychotherapy” as I believe we have to dig deeper to understand past patterns and the underlying reasons why we put ourselves in situations that we would like to be different. I believe there are therapeutical tools and techniques very helpful in specific phases of our lives, but I do believe everyone should allow themselves into the experience of going through the psychoanalysis journey so one can have a better understanding of themselves. Although it may sound harsh, I do have an empathic observation of what is brought from my patients, and we constantly work together on alternative solutions, possibilities and scenarios. I am an accessible therapist who does desire a lot of good outcomes to my patients.

During my 30 years as a professional acupuncturist, among other modalities, I succeeded in developing a system of Personality Profiling according to the Five Adaptation Types which provides clarity of a person’s psychology, while, at the same time forms a ‘road map’ to leading a self-empowered life – on all levels.

To address health in a holistic, yet un-traumatic way I have been professionally studying ‘Tapping’ (Emotional Freedom Techniques) for 16 years, helping clients to release memories, old emotions, addictions and limiting beliefs – which often lead to chronic health issues.

If required, either modality is used, always supported by professional coaching and counselling in order to assist clients in a responsible, compassionate and solution-oriented way. The goal is to accept themselves while, at the same time, trust their ability to shed past hurt and limitations in order to move forward into a self-determined future.

Having lived in Asia for almost 40 years, I have substantial experience with a diverse range of nationalities and cultures. I speak English and German.

Incontact was formed by three psychotherapists and their passion to create a space for a practice, where they can build deep therapeutic relationships that empower clients towards change. We are bound by root level experience of working within the community and then enlarging our skills to work with both the ex-pat and local community. All our counsellors are certified Master Practitioners registered with SAC (Singapore Association of Counsellors) and a variety of memberships according to their specialised interests (EMDR, Gottman Couples Therapy, Trauma, Hypnotherapy, Adoption, Fertility, to mention but a few). Our therapists have experience working with diverse nationalities and multinational organizations. In all that we do, our core is to establish an alliance with the client, that is safe, productive and attuned.

Art therapy can tap deep into emotional content not accessible to words. It is especially suitable for individuals who are resistant to talk or are non-verbal. Creative expression is a safe non-confrontational way to address difficult and traumatic experiences.

Art therapy aims to help clients:
* Gain insight into their problems and develop the capacity for transformation and healing.
* Learn to recognise detrimental thoughts/relationship patterns and address their source.
* Experience a sense of relief by expressing difficult emotional content through art.
* Learn to channelise negative emotions into artmaking.
