Jia Li is a Clinical Psychologist who is passionate about supporting the mental and emotional well-being of children, adolescents, and their families. She believes that nurturing mental wellness from a young age lays the foundation for resilient, thriving individuals—and helps prevent more complex mental health challenges in the future.

She holds a Bachelor of Social Sciences and a Master of Psychology (Clinical) from the National University of Singapore, and is a registered psychologist and approved supervisor with the Singapore Register of Psychologists (SRP). She has been practicing since 2017.

Over the years, Jia Li has worked across a spectrum of clinical settings—from public hospitals like Khoo Teck Puat Hospital to community-based organisations such as the Community Psychology Hub. She has supported children and adolescents facing emotional regulation difficulties including (but not limited to) Mood and Anxiety Disorders, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and relationship or adjustment related challenges. She has a special interest in working with clients who have experienced trauma or adverse life events, and is passionate about helping clients cultivate emotional regulation, self-awareness, and confidence.

Jia Li partners closely with caregivers, educators, and other professionals to provide holistic and developmentally informed care. Jia Li believes that therapy is a collaborative and transformative journey.

She provides a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where helping young clients feel safe, understood, and empowered to explore thoughts and feelings, uncover strengths, and build resilience to face life’s challenges. She believes in creating a safe, collaborative, and compassionate space for clients to feel heard and understood where they can grow and heal at a comfortable pace.
As quoted, “True transformation begins within—nurtured by self-love; it empowers us to face vulnerabilities, take purposeful action, accept the inevitable, and cultivate growth and enduring inner peace.”

Jia Li draws from a range of evidence-based modalities, tailoring each therapeutic journey to meet her clients’ unique needs and pace. These approaches include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Compassion-Focused strategies, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) approaches, as well as Mindfulness-based approaches.

In addition to therapy, Jia Li has experience in conducting psychological psychometric assessments for children (e.g. Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-WISC). Jia Li has also provided custody evaluations and recommendations for the Family Justice Courts and Syariah Court of Singapore.

Outside of her professional life, Jia Li enjoys baking and discovering new culinary experiences. She also cherishes quiet moments with loved ones, drawing inspiration and balance from her creative pursuits—practices that mirror the mindfulness and presence she brings to her work.
