Supporting employees means recognising what may be happening outside of work, too.

Two weeks ago, our Clinic Founder and Principal Psychologist, Dr Emma Waddington, joined Emily Wheen for MumBud Safe Circle 2026, in collaboration with Women@Google and the Parents & Caregivers ERG. The conversation focused on postpartum mental health and how we can better support both parents through the transition to parenthood.

They spoke about sleep deprivation, isolation, and the mental load of caring for a newborn, and how hard it can be to admit you’re struggling when you’re used to being capable and in control.

Becoming a parent is a significant life transition, and its impact doesn’t stop when you log on for work. Support doesn’t have to be complicated. It can start with:
→ Making it easier to speak honestly
→ Knowing where to access professional help
→ Creating an environment where people don’t have to wait until they’re struggling to ask for support

And one point that often gets overlooked: the non-birthing parent needs support, too.

Thank you to Emily Wheen and the team at Google for making space for this conversation, and to everyone who joined us.

The more we recognise the realities of life beyond work, the better placed we are to support the people behind the roles they hold.

Honestly, it can mean very different things depending on what you were doing.

If you were working it, you’ve probably spent days on your feet while everyone else was out having a good time. If you were in the thick of it, the crowds, the noise and the late nights may have caught up with you now. And if you couldn’t go, whether it was money, work, timing or something else, scrolling through everyone’s photos can sting.

Feeling drained, flat, or a bit left out this week is really common. It doesn’t mean you’re being dramatic or ungrateful.

Take it easy where you can. Sleep, a proper meal, and a slower day or two can go a long way.

Today is World Mental Health Day.

Many people wonder about therapy but are unsure what it involves, whether their struggles are “serious enough,” or when the right time to reach out might be. We put these questions to our therapists:

What do you wish people knew about mental health?
What do you wish people knew about therapy?
When is the best time to seek therapy?
What can someone do today if they’re going through a tough time?
What have you learned from seeing clients in Singapore?

Their answers draw on their clinical experiences and on the conversations they have with people across Singapore every day. A common thread is that support does not have to wait for a crisis. Reaching out early can make difficult periods more manageable, and it is never too soon to ask for help.

If you are going through something, or simply feel ready to talk to someone, we would are here for you. Book an appointment through the link in our bio.

If you know someone who might benefit from these answers, consider sharing this reel with them today.

If the haze has got you down, you're not imagining it.

Scratchy throats, tight chests, and a grey sky can wear on you physically and mentally. Our bodies pick up on these things, and it adds up. Especially given how long the haze has been around and with no end in sight.

It’s a real loss not to be able to head outside for fresh air, a run, or a walk to clear your head. And it’s okay to feel bummed about that.

When we can’t change the sky, it helps to shift from “what I’m missing out on” to “what’s still within my reach.” Here are some small things to try:

→ Bring your workout routine indoors: stretching, a gym session, or a mall walk
→ Add some green indoors, or spend some time by a window
→ Meet a friend somewhere indoors, and possibly plan something fun like boardgames. Connection is a mood-lifter too.

None of this makes the haze disappear, but it can help you feel a little less at its mercy.

We recently hosted our annual Connect with Us event.

There were new and old connections being formed, ideas and insights exchanged, and rooms with specialised topics being facilitated by our clinicians.

Alone, our work only reaches one part of the picture. Together, we see the whole of it.

We’re grateful to everyone who joined us and look forward to the amazing work ahead.

Monday got you down? 🫠

Maybe it's not just Monday.

If you're dreading the week before it's even started, feeling tired in a way sleep doesn't fix, or running on autopilot and snapping at small things, that could be burnout, not a case of the Mondays.

Burnout doesn't always look like a breakdown. Often you're still showing up, still getting things done, still "functioning".

A few things that might be a sign of burnout:
→ You're exhausted even after rest
→ Work feels pointless or heavier than it used to
→ You feel detached, cynical, or irritable
→ Small tasks feel huge

If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone. Burnout is really common and something that can be worked through.

If you've been struggling with this for some time, talk to us at Us Therapy. Link in bio to book a session.

The O-Levels can feel like the biggest thing in the world right now. The pressure from school, from family, from comparing yourself to everyone around you, it adds up.

Here's a reminder: exams measure how you performed on a particular paper, on a particular day. They don't measure your worth, your potential, or what you'll go on to do.

A few things that help during exam season:

→ Protect your sleep. A rested brain recalls more than a tired one.
→ Break study time into chunks, with real breaks in between.
→ Talk to someone about the pressure, whether it's a friend, a teacher or a family member.
→ Notice the self-talk. "I'm going to fail" is a worry, not a fact.

To the parents and caregivers reading: your encouragement carries more weight than you realise. Sometimes "I'm proud of you, however it goes" is exactly what a student needs to hear.

Some stress is normal. But if the pressure is becoming overwhelming, affecting your sleep, your mood, or how you see yourself, it may be time to speak with someone. You don't have to wait until exams are over.

On Thursday 29 October, we're bringing together four voices for an honest conversation on Understanding ADHD in Women at .

You'll hear from:
✦ Dr Emma Waddington, Clinical Psychologist & Founder, Us Therapy
✦ Dr P**n Ngar Yee, Medical Director, Serenity Clinic
✦ Moonlake Lee, Founder, Unlocking ADHD

If that thought sounds familiar, you're not alone. Career, relationships, family, money, milestones: there's always someone who seems to be further along.

Social comparison is a natural human tendency, but it can turn into a story that we're falling short.

Here's what's easy to forget: we're comparing our full, messy reality to other people's highlight reels. We see the promotion, not the doubt. The engagement, not the arguments. The "perfect" family photo, not the chaos just outside the frame.

A few things worth trying:

→ Ask where the measuring stick came from. Whose timeline are you following? Family expectations, social media, culture? Was it ever yours?

→ Notice the comparison as it happens. Naming it ("I'm comparing again") creates a little distance from the thought.

→ Get specific about your own values. What would "on track" look like if no one else were watching?

→ Audit your feed. If certain accounts consistently leave you feeling smaller, it's okay to mute them.

Comparison happens to everyone. But if it's becoming constant, affecting how you see your own worth, or making it hard to feel good about what you've built, it may be time to talk to someone. You don't have to wait until it feels unbearable.

Last Saturday, the Us Therapy team joined 'Sparkability 2026 A Walk for Change' in support of SPD and SOS.

We donated to take part, laced up, and spent the morning showing up for a cause that matters, while also getting some quality team time in.

We are grateful for events like this that bring community, movement, and purpose together in one place.
