Counseling in Singapore
Yeo, Lay See; Tan, Soo Yin; Neihart, Maureen F.
Journal of Counseling & Development, v90 n2 p243-248 Apr 2012
Singapore, a tiny island nation, rose from 3rd- to 1st-world status in just 3 decades. Unlike in most developed countries, counseling in Singapore has a short history with faith-based beginnings and currently faces challenges to remain culturally relevant. The authors trace the development of Singapore's counseling services, provide an update regarding counseling practices in the school and community, and describe counseling and its relation to psychology in the educational setting. The authors conclude by examining professional issues and future directions.
