Lynn often describes her undergraduate experience at Brisbane, Australia to be transformative and fondly remembers how her interests in clinical psychology and research were nurtured by the faculty and stoked during her honours year at the Queensland Brain Institute. Upon her return to Singapore, she completed her postgraduate degree and spent the majority of the last decade practicing as a Senior Clinical Psychologist at the Institute of Mental Health (IMH). This door led her to cross paths with individuals from diverse backgrounds in various contexts (i.e., community, outpatient, inpatient and forensic settings) across the lifespan. Her experience in recent years saw her working with clients struggling with mood, anxiety, interpersonal difficulties, loss and transitions. She bore witness to recurring traumatic loops that pursued happiness, perfection and strength in the absence of rest, attunement, authenticity and self-compassion that plagued both minds and bodies.

There, she co-developed a multi-disciplinary short-term group therapy for individuals with mild cognitive impairment and their caregivers with collaborations with […]
