Divorce Counselling

In-person Counselling

The Strengthening Families Programme@Family Service Centres (FAM@FSCs) and Divorce Support Specialist Agencies (DSSAs) offer face-to-face counselling. You may see a counsellor either as an individual or as a couple. This service is open to Singapore Citizens, Permanent Residents or clients with a Singapore nexus (defined as having a family member who is a Singapore Citizen or a Permanent Resident).

Usually, at the first session, there will be an intake assessment where the counsellor understands more about your situation and makes a recommendation on the format of counselling. The recommended number of sessions and the focus of subsequent sessions will be determined based on the needs of the individual or couple. All sessions at FAM@FSCs and DSSAs are free-of-charge.
