Counselling Thailand has grown to become one of Thailand’s most respected private counseling practices since its inception in 2018.

Individuals, couples, families, children, teenagers, and corporate clients are all served by the office, which specializes in counseling and therapy.

Its counseling team has expanded not only in size but also in experience, expertise, and multilingualism. 

We like how it provides counseling and therapy in a variety of languages, including English, Thai, Mandarin, Malay, and Indonesian.

We love how the office offers a wide range of counseling services ranging from individual counseling, couples therapy, Thai/ western relationship counseling, child/ teens/ adolescents, art therapy, LGBTQ, alcohol counseling, alcohol rehab alternative, and online therapy in Thailand and worldwide.

It also provides different therapeutic practices depending on what will suit your needs best. It has the famous CBT or cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered counseling, and emotionally focused therapy.

We were very relaxed about opening up our problems to the therapists because they don’t show you judgment and understand you to the very best they can. 

What we didn’t like about the office is its appointment-based policy. Walk-ins are not welcomed or entertained. 

You have to book an appointment online first before having a session with the experts.

If you’re someone who has a shifting schedule, we do not recommend this office since you can’t do walk-ins or sudden visits.

Bangkok Counselling Service Co. Ltd. (BCS) provides a wide range of psychological and emotional support services, including marriage counselling, in both English and Thai. They cater to individuals, couples, and families, aiming to create a supportive environment for their clients to explore personal challenges and relationships.

BCS offers counselling in both English and Thai, which makes their services accessible to a diverse clientele. This is especially helpful for mixed-language couples who may feel more comfortable discussing sensitive topics in their preferred language.

Their marriage counselling focuses on addressing repeating cycles, improving communication, and fostering a better understanding between partners. This can help couples resolve underlying issues and build healthier relationships.

Clients can choose between in-person sessions in Bangkok or online counselling, providing flexibility for those who cannot attend in person, such as expatriates or individuals living outside the city.

BCS works with all types of relationships and is LGBT-affirming, ensuring that all couples, regardless of orientation, feel supported and respected.

Their website offers detailed FAQs and resources to help potential clients understand the counselling process before committing, which can ease first-time clients into the experience.

MindMatters Psychologist & Counseling is run by Dr. Simone Negrini, an Italian-native therapist. He has held a variety of positions in counseling, psychological support, and patient care, as well as a long-running private practice in Thailand and Europe.

His therapy methods require you to consider why you tell your story the way you do. Dr. Simone is able to balance the casualness of the therapy while accurately diagnosing you.

Dr. Simone is a serious and competent therapist who can listen to you and put you at ease in a relaxed and approachable manner. He is simple to relate to, has excellent comprehension skills, and is able to offer wise counsel.

The office has counseling and therapy for depression, anxiety, bipolar disorders, and even love and relationships. 

For those who are unable to visit the office in Bangkok, it provides online counseling. We believe that having these therapy sessions at home is a convenient and effective way for us to communicate freely.

Although the sessions are conducted over a live video call, the content of online therapy is identical to that of in-person therapy.

One downside that we noticed is the office doesn’t have an exact timeline on how therapies or counseling usually lasts.

Another thing is you don’t get to choose another therapist or counselor since Dr. Simone is the only one in the office.

Lighthouse Human Services and Counseling Bangkok is next on our list. It provides drug and alcohol rehabilitation, relationship and marriage counseling, sex addiction treatment, mental health/supportive counseling, and ADHD/psychological testing.

Dr. Eric K. Mason, Ph.D., is the director of the said office and holds BA’s in Psychology and German, as well as Masters’s Degrees in Clinical Counseling/Addiction Studies and International Studies.

With his expertise, you can be assured that every session with him will contribute to you and your partner’s relationship. 

Dr. Eric has more than 15 years of experience in the field of counseling and psychological services. He has a great deal of experience in drug addiction counseling, mental health counseling, and general supportive counseling.

If you want to talk about your problems, from minor concerns to addictions and more serious mental health issues, we believe you’ll be in good hands here.

It also has a dedicated team that assists and guides its clients throughout the process to ensure a smooth session.

Finally, we appreciate Lighthouse Human Services’ effective communication. You will have no trouble communicating with the therapist because Dr. Eric speaks English, German, and Thai, which is very convenient for foreigners in Bangkok.

However, we find it a bit frustrating that you don’t get to choose another therapist and have to wait for Dr. Eric’s schedule to have a spot — since he’s the only therapist in the office. 

Scott Berry & Associates is led by Dr. Scott Berry, a professionally certified coach and counselor who is based in Bangkok and serves English-speaking ex-pats throughout Asia. 

He works with people both in-person and online, which we find very convenient. 

He’s been in Bangkok for about 15 years and has UK psychotherapy qualifications. Dr. Scott holds an MA and a Ph.D. from Australia, which strengthens his credentials in counseling and therapy.

His encouragement, kindness, and concern have helped clients get through difficult times. He is a good listener and easy to communicate with. 

With Dr. Scott Berry’s wealth of wide and varied life experience as well as his extensive training, you are in the best of hands. His method is both insightful and professional.

We love how the office offers free online resources for your emotional health on its website, which we find very convenient for people who can’t go to the office due to any reason.   

Another good thing about Scott Berry & Associates is it’s transparent about its rates, whether for face-to-face or online sessions. Plus, Dr. Scott is willing to offer 100% money back for any valid reason.

The only downside that we found is the firm doesn’t give extensive information about what type of counseling and/or therapy it offers. 

Bangkok Counselling is a facility that accommodates a wide range of counseling services that specializes in culturally sensitive counseling for individuals who has concerns when it comes to emotional issues and intends to receive proper guidance to counter such problems.

We like that their employees are highly experienced and they bring over 30 years of experience in the field in every approach and individual to personalize their services.

Furthermore, their counseling services are highly versatile wherein they are able to give clients of different backgrounds the appropriate treatment to better incorporate progressive practices into the client’s life.

Note though that they don’t have their rates readily available on their website so clients may need to book an appointment with them beforehand for such information and details.

Overall, with their excellent and responsive customer services, flexible and diverse treatments, and highly beneficial support services to clients, we highly recommend them to clients currently struggling with their emotional concerns to check them out.
