Registered psychologist with Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA)
Doctor of Clinical Psychology (University of Sydney)

Kaiying has a broad range of experience working with both kids and adults from different backgrounds. Prior to obtaining her Doctor of Clinical Psychology in Sydney, she was working in the government sector as a prison psychologist, and her work included conducting risk assessments and group intervention for offenders. More recently, Kaiying has been working at private clinics in Singapore conducting assessments and intervention for kids and adults. This includes intelligence, ADHD and autism assessments, as well as therapy for anxiety, depression and stress.

Kaiying adopts an individualised approach to helping individuals experiencing various psychological and emotional challenges. Some modalities she uses include Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness.

Kaiying has a keen interest in parenting, that is partly related to her personal parenting experience as a parent of two. She thus works closely with families to manage difficulties that arise. In particular, she has a special interest in helping children who display oppositional behaviours or conduct problems. This relates to her previous experience as a prison psychologist, as well as her postgraduate training in Sydney, whereby she was trained in parenting intervention that target oppositional behaviour, and conducted research in this area (Sng, K. I., Hawes, D. J., Raine, A., Ang, R. P., Ooi, Y. P., & Fung, D. S. (2018). Callous unemotional traits and the relationship between aggressive parenting practices and conduct problems in Singaporean families. Child abuse & neglect, 81, 225-234.)

Another key area of interest is helping individuals with emotional difficulties or emotional dysregulation. For instance, Kaiying uses Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to help individuals with borderline personality disorder or others who need help with emotional regulation.

Kaiying also practises mindfulness and regularly incorporates it in her intervention.

Kaiying speaks both English and Mandarin.
