Support Through Life’s Seasons

Specialist Psychotherapy for Perinatal Mental Health and Life Transitions

Nice to meet you

I’m Laura Chaudhary - an American psychotherapist, counsellor and certified perinatal mental health professional in Singapore.

I have a particular interest in supporting clients through life transitions whether that’s a move to a new country, relationship beginnings and ends, the birth of a child, or processing the loss of a loved one. These significant transitions can bring a mix of unexpected and challenging emotions, as well as a reevaluation of what matters most.

I look forward to learning about what has brought you here today - what challenges you are facing, what your hopes are for the future, and how we might work together to bring you closer to the life you want to be living.

Are you the right therapist for me?

Finding the right therapist matters — you need someone you feel genuinely at ease with, who understands your experience, and who has the right expertise in what you're facing.

In my practice, I work to create a warm, supportive space where you can express yourself freely and feel truly heard. I specialize in working with adults navigating a range of concerns, including:

  • New parenthood

  • Postpartum and pregnancy-related depression and anxiety

  • Fertility concerns

  • Relationship difficulties

  • Neurodivergence

  • Sleep difficulties

  • Grief and loss

  • Depression and low mood

  • Anxiety and panic disorders

If any of these resonate with you, I'd love to hear from you.

How would we work together?

No two people walk the same path, which is why I don’t believe in a "one-size-fits-all" approach to healing. You bring a unique history and a specific set of hopes for the future; our work is to build a therapeutic space that honors both.

My approach is collaborative and integrative. Together, we will look at the "here and now," using practical, evidence-based techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT),to address immediate challenges. We may also consider deeper patterns that may be holding you back and leave you feeling “stuck,” through schema therapy and psychodynamic theory. By drawing on these therapies with a focus on your individual hopes and dreams, we create a roadmap that is as scientifically grounded as it is deeply personal.

Having lived and worked in New York, Hong Kong, and Singapore, I am attuned to the importance of cultural nuances in my therapeutic practice. My appreciation for diversity is further informed by my own experience as a member of a multi-racial, multi-lingual family. I have had the privilege to help those navigating intercultural relationships/
families/identities. My practice is neuro-affirming and welcoming to the LGBTQ+ community.

  • For individuals, a standard 50 minute session is SGD$200 whether conducted online or in person.

    Longer sessions can be arranged if needed and mutually agreed upon. These would be billed on a pro-rata basis.
