Anita Vasa Barot, LMFT I am a California licensed marriage and family therapist with over 10 years of experience counseling individuals (including children and teenagers), couples, and families to communicate better, reduce conflict, and overcome challenges in their personal and professional lives. With compassion, empathy, and understanding, I work with each individual to help them build on their strengths and attain their personal growth goals they are committed to accomplishing.

Unlocking ADHD was founded to bring hope to the ADHD community and to address the gap in information, support, and access that exists in Singapore. We believe that there are many struggling children/ youths in the community and stressed-out parents who have tried many avenues but are unable to unlock their children’s potential. This situation also applies to adults who have struggled through childhood, academic, professional, and personal life saddled with underperformance, shame, low self-esteem, and negative labels. If ADHD happens to be the underlying reason for their situation, the good news is that with a proper diagnosis and management, life can change for the better!  ADHDers have many inherent strengths and identifying these will enable them to become productive members in society and also fulfill their potential.   There is gap in the availability of information about ADHD in Singapore – where to go for help, access affordable support and connect to a community. There are also gaps in accessing tools to equip ADHDers to live a better life. Unlocking ADHD hopes to be able to do its part to fill these gaps. US psychiatrist, Dr Edward (Ned) Hallowell, a world authority on ADHD and himself an ADHDer, has described the […]

Jaque Ng, I began my work in community services by participating as a volunteer for nearly 20 years. In 2011, I enrolled to study a Master in Counselling and took courage to start a journey to serve full time in community services. With knowledge and skills I have obtained from my counselling and training & development programs, I could deliver my counselling service effectively. From a volunteer to a fulltime counsellor, I found this journey was a humbled experience. It taught me to listen with my heart, to show my compassion and to stay attune to my passion towards those who I met, clients, caregivers and those serving in this work. Having to say been in this community services work for decades, I learnt that this is a kind of work requires continued learning, not only upgrading knowledge and skills, also from people I meet in all walks of life. Thereafter, I will integrate my collective learnings and use them in my practice to benefit those people I serve. Nonetheless, I do take pride of my counselling practice because I love my work and I strive to have good, positive and perseverance attitudes to deliver my service.
