ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Suhashini Perera

I’m a psychotherapist based in Singapore, working with individuals and couples both locally and online across the world.

I support people who feel emotionally exhausted, stuck, or lost in painful patterns, especially those navigating 𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐚𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐞, 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐮𝐦𝐚, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲, 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤.

If you’re here, you might be feeling:

● lonely, even when you’re around people
● helpless… like nothing is really changing
● hopeless about your relationships or your future.
● emotionally drained from constantly trying, giving, or fixing

You may look like you’re coping on the outside but inside, it feels heavy.

You might be:

● overthinking everything you say or do
● walking on eggshells around certain people
●feeling guilty for wanting space or boundaries
● questioning yourself more than trusting yourself
● Stuck in the same relationship patterns, even when you know better

And a part of you keeps asking:

“𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐞?”
𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐈 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐥𝐲

This isn’t just the work I do.
This is something I’ve lived through.

Growing up in a narcissistic environment, I learned early that love could feel conditional, confusing, and sometimes unsafe.

I became the one who adjusted.
The one who tried harder.
The one who stayed, even when it hurt.

And like many of my clients, I carried those patterns into adulthood: , into relationships where I felt anxious, unseen, and emotionally drained.

For a long time, I thought something was wrong with me.

But through my own healing, I came to understand:

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗲. 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵.

That understanding is at the heart of the work I do today.

My approach

Therapy that is gentle, grounded, and deeply attuned.

I take a trauma-informed, person-centred approach. That means I focus not just on symptoms, but on your story, your nervous system, your relationships, and the parts of you that had to adapt in order to survive.

What therapy with me may include

  • Understanding trauma bonds, narcissistic patterns, and why you feel stuck
  • Exploring childhood wounds, shame, self-doubt, and people-pleasing
  • Making sense of emotional overwhelm, anxiety, and feeling “too much”
  • Building boundaries without guilt and a stronger sense of self
  • Processing grief, anger, and the pain of feeling unseen or unheard
  • Learning practical tools for regulation, to feel calmer, clearer and more in control

Modalities I may draw from

  • Person-Centred Therapy (a safe, non-judgemental space to be heard)
  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for thoughts, patterns, and clarity
  • Somatic & trauma-informed approaches (working with the body)
  • Parts work & attachment-focused therapy (understanding your inner world)
  • Psychoeducation & grief-informed support

You may feel lost in the relationship unsure of what’s real, and where you stand.

In therapy, you’ll be seen, heard, and supported as we make sense of the dynamic, break unhealthy cycles, and reconnect you with your needs, boundaries, and sense of self.

For couples, using principles from the Gottman Method Couples Therapy, we work on communication, conflict, and rebuilding emotional safety at a pace that feels safe for both partners.
