 Angie Koh
Angie became interested in alternative therapies when she first discovered Educational Kinesiology in 2000, the concept of whole-brain learning, the connection between the cognitive, physiological and emotional aspects in human development. Over the years, she has acquired other therapies and now uses principally CranioSacral Therapy(CST) to treat illness, pain, as well as sensory, motor and neurological dysfunctions, in order to enhance clients’ general well-being, assisting them in achieving their full potential in life. Angie is also a certified Teaching Assistant in CST with the Upledger Institute, Inc, Florida, and is one of the few advanced CranioSacral Therapists in Singapore.
Other therapies she uses are Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) , Dr Masgutova's Neuro-Sensory Motor Reflex Integration (MNRI), Sophrology and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). She is also Associate of Dr Masgutova's Neuro-Sensory-Motor Reflex Integration.
Having acquired a Diploma in Counselling Psychology, she integrates counselling and a holistic approach to treat stress-related issues, depression, phobias, insomnia, addictions, migraine and pain management. Angie does not believe in needlessly long-term therapy. However, there are some conditions, such as long-term depression, or those which result from very painful or traumatic experiences, which may require a longer period to heal. She encourages her clients to learn self-management techniques so that they are actively involved in their healing process.
A certified Consultant and Instructor of Brain Gym® with the Educational Kinesiology Foundation in U.S.A., she also uses Sensory Integration and Applied/ Educational Kinesiology to assist children and adults with learning and emotional issues.
Angie is university-trained; awarded a Singapore Public Service Commission and French Government Scholarship in 1978, she graduated in 1983 with a Bachelor’s Degree in the Sciences of Language from the University of Franche-Comté, Besançon, France. She has had extensive experience as a full-time Trainer, for over 20 years, teaching Communication Skills in English and French to participants of all ages and nationalities at the Ministry of Education Language Centre, Alliance Française, as well as to several teaching institutes and to private corporate clients. Various institutions, Educators, and Parents have benefited from her Brain Gym® workshops. Infused with a warm personality, her workshops are enjoyed by many who find them dynamic and empowering.
She was actively involved as a Volunteer Counsellor with the Befrienders of Youth, an outreach programme supported by the Family Life Society/Community Chest of Singapore in the 90’s.
Her other interests include acquiring Languages, Architecture, World and Classical Music, Jazz, South East Asian History, Photography and Dance. Angie is also an avid reader of serious fiction and enjoys the Visual Arts.
