What they say
Gloria provided a safe space for me to address the suppressed trauma that was affecting me. The sessions were effective in helping me deal with past hurts. The method which she uses, brainspotting, was much more effective for me compared to the usual counselling therapy which I went for prior. Thank you.

So grateful to have had my first experience with seeking professional help in the safe, affirming and effective therapy sessions Gloria offers :) When I first heard of brainspotting, I knew it was what I needed to undo the knots in my system that led me to live in constant stress, unhappiness and insecurity, and I can safely say that Gloria has made getting through these deep-set hurdles a much more efficient process with brainspotting.

For as long as I can remember, I've struggled with intense emotions and feelings that had been building up since my childhood. Many people perceived me as hot-headed and quick-tempered, which not only affected my relationships but also my career.
Desperate for help, I turned to various religious counseling services, but instead of finding solace, I felt more triggered and frustrated. It seemed like a dead end. That's when I was introduced to Gloria, my last resort
With Gloria's genuine and sincere approach, I finally felt heard and understood. Her counseling therapy required patience and openness, but it was worth it. She helped me process my emotions and work through past hurts and traumas, restoring my self-confidence in the process.
Gloria empowered me to become more independent in managing my emotions and feelings, equipping me with the tools to navigate life's challenges with confidence. The transformation has been remarkable - I've become a more joyful and positive person.
I'm forever grateful to Gloria for her guidance, support, and follow-up. She's been a true blessing in my life.

Gloria is a skilful and meticulous listener, advisor and counsellor
She is sharp and patient in her call of duty, never getting ahead or lagging too far behind from her clients’ needs and problems. I like the way she sets targets for me to work on and she uses Brainspotting as a technique to expedite the processing. Most of the time I find it amazing and surprised by the impact. My mind and brain actually have so much hidden inside that need unpacking and throw or simply put at the correct places. Having gone through and still going through this therapy with her, it made me become more aware of the relationship between my subconscious mind and what and why I am thinking in a particular pattern in reality. This pulls me back to who I really am deep inside and gives me insights into the way I process information and perceive things which in turn affects my overall well being: emotionally, psychologically, mentally and spiritually. I feel more connected to who I really am and what I really need to do in order to overcome my personal challenges and issues. With her mindful guidance as well as prudence, I become more confident of embracing myself too.
Lastly, I never knew that the coffee I used to “love” or can’t do without was actually a result of my feelings of disengagement, loneliness and sadness. I used to have the need to drink at least 4 to 5 cups of coffee a day, thinking that with that cup of coffee, it will just make me feel good and filled, it did not actually. In fact, after a few sessions of Brainspotting sessions with Gloria, I realised that I “quit coffee” all the sudden in a natural manner. Then it made me realise that I was addicted to coffee due to some lack in my emotional world. Now I still enjoy coffee as it is, but it is no longer a “to go for” drink. I learnt to look for alternatives and enjoy healthier choices of beverages. Imagine, how much impact Brainspotting could have on some other types of addiction! To me, I believe, and I know it will help definitely!
Gloria is definitely a good guide (in psychotherapy) and life coach.

Seeing Dr. Kong has honestly been one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. I used to think therapy was this long, never-ending process—but she proved it doesn’t have to be. She made me feel safe, said all the right things, and helped me work through things I never thought I could. I’m so grateful I found her. Highly, highly recommended!
