The Health Ministry is working towards registering psychologists in Singapore, focusing on those providing direct care, involving higher-risk assessments and interventions. This comes as the presence of psychologists beyond traditional clinical settings grows amid rising focus on mental health.

A committee comprising practitioners, regulators and service providers from the public and private sectors has been established to oversee the implementation of the initiative.

On this episode of Morning Shot, Dr Shawn Ee, Clinical Psychologist & Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist and Director at The Psychology Practice shares why it’s so important to regulate psychologists.
