Psychotherapy and Counselling

Welcome to AstroTherapy with Elaine Lim

I’m Elaine Lim, an AstroTherapist blending the wisdom of Western Astrology with psychotherapeutic support to guide you on your journey of self-discovery. Originally from Singapore, I’ve called the UK home for many years, where I trained as a Psychosynthesis psychotherapeutic counsellor—a holistic, soul-centered approach that nurtures mind, body, and spirit.

In my practice, I weave together the insights of Psychosynthesis with my expertise in Western Astrology. This powerful combination allows me to see and support the whole you—unlocking a deeper understanding of your inner world and life’s unique patterns. Whether you’re seeking clarity, healing, or personal growth, I’m here to walk alongside you.

Sessions are tailored to your needs and can take place virtually or in person, depending on my location—whether I’m in London, Singapore, or Bali.

In my psychotherapy and counselling work with clients, I work with a broad range of issues including but not limited to:

  • Anxiety, stress and fear
  • Depression, a sense of hopelessness or ongoing sadness
  • Loneliness, and a yearning to “belong”
  • Anger and/or rage
  • Low self esteem and low self confidence
  • Relationship difficulties and attachment issues
  • Challenges with communication
  • Bereavement, loss and separation; an inability to “let go”
  • Trauma and crisis
  • Obsessive and/or compulsive behaviour
  • Perfectionism

  • Addiction and codependency
  • Lack of meaning or purpose in life
  • Lack of direction or focus
  • Feeling “stuck”
  • Overwhelming shame and/or guilt
  • Spiritual awakening
  • Lack of personal boundaries
  • Negative thought patterns and self destructive behaviour

I have called what I am offering Ying Yang Therapy because, just as in the ancient Daoist concept of non-dualism, I believe that counselling and psychotherapy is a fundamental bringing together of two or more seemingly opposite or conflicting parts within us so that we may become whole. I’m also drawn towards Jung’s theory that the human psyche seeks wholeness – wholeness comprising of both light and shadow, a state in which consciousness and the unconscious work together in harmony. How can we embrace even the dark, shadowy aspects of ourselves that, nevermind others, even WE may find unloveable and intolerable?

Coming from a background in both Eastern (yoga, meditation, tantra) and Western (astrology, tarot, plant medicines) spiritual traditions, I like working creatively to unlock what lies in my clients’ unconscious such as through the use of dreamwork or active imagination. 

My intention is that I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for us to walk this journey together in Presence. Together we will work towards strengthening your connection to your innermost being, thereby giving you the tools to access the guidance of your own inner Wise One. I would also like to work with you on opening your heart to all the joy, beauty and abundance that is your birthright. My ultimate aim is that you should be able to step into being a conscious co-creator of your own reality and connect to your soul’s infinite creative potential, thereby empowering you to achieve your heart’s deepest desires in this life.
