Acorntherapy is a boutique psychotherapy service focused on quality delivery of evidence-based and effective psychological therapy for individuals and couples.

Yi Shing, our Founder, has extensive experience working with people distressed by challenges in life, at work and at home. At the IMH (Institute of Mental Health), Yi Shing worked with adult patients, as well as parents of distressed adolescents in its Child Guidance Clinic.

For individual clients, Yi Shing uses trauma-focused modalities such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help clients overcome challenges in life, career, and mental health conditions.

Yi Shing is a lifelong learner on a constant quest for treatment that is more efficacious, safe, and produces sustained healing for clients.

Yi Shing believes the more safely and efficiently we are able to treat mental health complaints, the better we are at alleviating misery of the sufferers and their families, and at reducing the period of affliction. That will in turn contribute to greater mental wellbeing and resilience of the community.

Yi Shing also works with couples in relationship and marriage therapy using Gottman Method Couples Therapy, to guide couples to repair their relationship, navigate conflicts, and to re-bond.

Our major therapeutic approaches include EMDR, DBT [Dialectical Behavioral Therapy], Gottman Method Couples Therapy.

Meet Lawrence (he/him)
Since 2007 Lawrence has worked with diverse clients in multi-discipline settings, addressing complex issues like trauma, domestic violence, and mental illness. As a senior therapist, he has also supervised and mentored other therapists. His corporate management background helps him understand the challenges faced by individuals from various walks of life.

Areas of Specialisation
Lawrence has developed a passion for working with:

Persons who experienced trauma
Traumatic experiences during a person's formative years can have wide ranging impacts on mental health that pervade adulthood.

Couples and families
Intimate relationships and familial relationships are a significant factor contributing to a person's mental wellness. When instability rocks the home, it can affect multiple parties.

Queer persons, i.e., LGBTQIA+ identified persons, and their loved ones
Queer persons face ongoing stressors, often lacking familial and social support. There is a dearth of open and affirmative spaces. Even within professional settings it is not easy to find queer identified therapists or allies.
