About Therapy
Walking into a therapist's room can be frightening; walking out can be an enriching experience.
The fear of walking in is real; the clarity that comes with walking out is also real. Do not let your fear conquer you, instead let it propel you to achieve your goal.
We can get stuck in life once in a while. Seeking help is a sign of resiliency, not weakness. Allow me to walk together with you through this temporary stage of your life.

“I had a great time over the two days over process group. Even though it was my second time, I felt like I benefited nonetheless, especially on the second day when a conversation between another participant and I had sparked some feelings within me. I only came to realise the impact after I had time to process my thoughts post-process group. I would love for others to also be able to experience what they seek and trust the process when they go! “

“The two day process group has been an amazing experience, as I learned that my identity is not pegged to my status, profession, or my material possessions. I enjoyed connecting with people as they are, just like how we were children connecting with each other, when meeting at a playground for the first time. I thank Simon for holding the space for us to get to know each other, getting in touch with humanity, and within ourselves. I highly recommend the process group for anyone who think they have lost the ability to connect meaningfully with people.”
Dr. Sanjiv Nair
“I am a public sector psychiatrist and I run process groups myself. I first met Dr. Neo at a workplace event, and I was impressed by his technical ability and genuine desire to connect deeply. So I couldn’t help reaching out to him personally after the event. When I learned that he was conducting these weekend groups, it was a no-brainer that I experience it firsthand.
The two days moved me in so many ways. In the short span of time, I had a whirlwind of experiences and I left feeling so alive and more in touch with myself. As much as I admire Dr. Neo’s expertise, what stayed with me was the depth of his humanity and his uncanny ability to forge a genuine connection while helping others do the same.”

“The Process Group had helped me discover many of my hidden assumptions I had about relationships - what does it mean to connect, how 'careful' I should be to not hurt others and whether people can 'survive' the negative feelings I have towards them. I supposed there were brief moments when I might think to myself (or even tell others) how some of these assumptions may be inaccurate, but none of these reflections had long-lasting impact on how I am relate to others. I continued to live by them because they felt real to me and were the only ways I knew how to connect with others in my life. I am grateful for the safe space in the Process Group, where I could try to take some risks, act against these assumptions and experience how it feels like to connect without listening to the horror stories my mind tells me. I would like to thank Simon for spending two days with us, facilitating and caring for the Group... words can only give a glimpse of how the experience has been transformative for me.”

“Going to a process group with uncertainty & feeling anxious on how it will turn out to be. After the 2 days, the group connection went deep and I am thankful that I got to experience what it meant by connecting as human beings… I learnt that it is important to put thoughts/ actions/ feelings into words, it is powerful.”
Renee
“Attending the 2 day process group has been a rather revealing experience. It revealed my expectations, desires, needs and wants from my connection with the people closest to me. With Simon’s skillful facilitation and at times, deliberate non-intervention, it allowed that to emerge in a group of strangers. And the process didn’t end with the session! It felt like I’ve been given a precious tool and now I’ve to decide how I’ll be using it.”

I felt vulnerable yet supported as I shared my struggles with the group. I saw genuine understanding in their eyes, not judgment, not pity, just pure recognition. Though my voice occasionally wavered, the group’s steady presence anchored me, creating a safe space where my vulnerability was not a weakness but a bridge to deeper connection. At the end, I felt both emptied and filled, I was drained from emotional release, yet nourished by the shared humanity.

Attending the process Group helped me learn more about myself - my communication, thoughts, emotions, and perception of others. It opened my mind to different perspectives and enabled me to achieve insight into a better way of relating to others. It was very meaningful, and I don't believe I would have learned what I did in any other setting. Thank you, Dr Simon, for your precious inputs and the opportunity to participate.

The process group helped me understand myself better and to connect with others in deeper ways through giving space for others to reveal themselves whilst allowing me to engage with them without feeling offended or challenged, even when the issues discussed were sensitive or conflicting. Thank you Dr Simon Neo for your thoughtful insights and meaningful facilitation. It was an interesting and delightful experience with you and the rest of the team in the process group.

I am really glad I came to this process group. It has helped me process some pain I thought I had already dealt with.I used to think I was good at listening to others’ problems, but through this group, I have learned so much about truly listening when someone is sharing their pain. Each member came with different needs and from different age groups, yet Dr. Simon facilitated the sessions in such a way that every voice was heard and valued. Highly recommend these sessions- they are a safe space for healing, reflection, and growth.

“I felt so seen, heard, valued, and loved within the two days. It was a journey of self-discovery and creating deep connections through vulnerability. It truly had a very impact on me and everyone else.”
Ricky
“The experience of group dynamic in the Process Group makes a big difference when it is compared with the experience of going through a personal therapy session. As this was my third time in attending such a process group with Dr Simon Neo, I found that each time the experience was different and unique. For this time though, something surprising beyond what I could have imagined had happened to me. I took this surprising, and yet rather scary self-discovery as a gift in my journey with other participants in the process group.”

Process Group helped me discover my feelings behind my reactions. I also came across some moments to release my hidden emotions which I was not aware of and haven’t managed to address. It’s a great chance to face the true inner-self and speak as honest as you can be and it’s safe. It’s also mandarin-speaker friendly if you want to express in that language.

“I started the session feeling apprehensive but the whole group was very supportive and atmosphere felt safe and I was able to be vulnerable to share my thoughts and feelings. It was a very unique experience. A great platform to be able to be honest and share. Thank you Simon for having me.”

Participating in the 2-day Process Group led by Simon was a truly eye-opening experience. The sessions provided a safe and supportive space for reflection, honest sharing, and meaningful dialogue. I learned practical tools to become a more effective and mindful communicator, while also gaining deeper insights into myself. One of the most impactful aspects was the opportunity to genuinely connect with others on a deeper level. Through shared experiences and guided conversations, I discovered the power of vulnerability and authenticity in building relationships. The process also reinforced the importance of self-love and believing in my own worth.I left the sessions feeling more confident, grounded, and inspired to continue growing, both personally and in how I relate to those around me.
Nel
“I attended Simon’s process group over a span of two days. It allowed me sufficient time and space to reflect, share, participate, and be heard. I enjoyed the facilitation by Simon as he would lead the group to our own discoveries and experience wonderful moments of connection. My group left with a bigger sense of purpose and direction. I left with deeper understanding of the participants and also greater motivation to reflect. I believe process group will make magic happen if one is truly open to receiving and participating. Can’t wait for the next one!”
Kathy
“Our group was very cautious about coming for 'process' but Simon so-quickly created an atmosphere of warmth and trust. He let things unfold and was very skilled at helping us go deeper into issues. It seemed like each person felt encouraged to give more of their authentic self as the hours went by. The level of vulnerability reached, surprised us all, but amazed us too. Because we felt cared for and safe and in that environment true feelings seemed to want to come forward and be shared. Simon's holding all this, with carefully crafted questions/language, created great empathy and compassion. It was a rewarding experience in the end, due entirely to the experienced understanding of the facilitator. “
Sofia
“I came into the process group feeling unsure and anxious, and if I’m honest, I went in on the first day rather begrudgingly. Yet I’m deeply grateful that I trusted Simon and the process, because I left feeling genuinely transformed. Simon is an exceptionally skilled facilitator—he knows when to assert his presence to gently but firmly challenge both the group and me, and when to step back and allow the group’s own wisdom to emerge. There were moments when I felt deeply uncomfortable: I cried, noticed urges to withdraw into myself, and sat with emotions I would usually avoid. But at no point did I feel unsafe, which speaks volumes about Simon’s empathy, attunement, and care. I walked away with two powerful takeaways: learning to notice my reactions and distinguish between reacting and responding, and the practice of staying curious—even when I think I already know the truth about myself or others. That invitation to remain curious about my reactions, held with such gentleness and generosity, is something I hope to apply and continue practising in my life.”
Irina
“hey Simon, thanks for the process group for the past 2 days. Basically it was a lot and it was actually quite physically draining, but I guess it's important to listen in and make sure that we're really tuned in. I think process group can be useful for any groups that might want to really think about their dynamics and how they communicate to each other, for me I did go slightly deeper to how I felt but not all of it, so we'll see how it changes the group and my role within it.”
Grace
“The process group was very helpful for the entire group and myself for a better mutual understanding and a clearer view on how to move forward. Simon definitely created a safe space for this to happen. He was sensitive and attentive while remembering the needs of every member. The 2 days were very fulfilling, and I am glad we chose to do it with Simon.”
Renee
“You have led us through a thorough beautiful journey of connection, healing, and revelation. We all came out feeling so much more connected. Thank you.”
