EMDR Therapy in Singapore and online worldwide
WHAT I DO
Ily Tsare is an accredited EMDR therapist, member of EMDRIA (EMDR International Association, USA), and a certified CBT therapist, working with the individuals in Singapore and online, at the intersection of wellbeing, clinical psychology and career development. He combines trauma-informed counselling with evidence-based therapy methods to help individuals, professionals, and leaders manage the challenges and setbacks to move forward.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a cutting-edge, body-and-brain-based psychotherapy method designed to help clients process unresolved emotional experiences — not just talk about them. Ily uses EMDR to help clients overcome:
-
The lingering impact of past failures, criticism, rejection, or burnout
-
Emotional pain tied to professional trauma or interpersonal conflict
-
Fear of visibility, fear of success, or fear of judgment
-
Impostor syndrome, self-sabotage, and chronic self-doubt
-
Motivation blocks rooted in emotional memory
-
Anxiety, grief, and burnout with emotional collapse
EMDR is especially effective when a client feels “stuck” despite insight or logic. It bypasses overthinking and taps into the nervous system’s ability to reprocess traumatic or overwhelming experiences at their root — creating lasting change, often faster than traditional talk therapy.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on understanding and changing the thought patterns and behaviors that fuel stress, anxiety, or underperformance. Ily applies CBT techniques to help clients:
-
Develop emotional regulation and resilience
-
Overcome perfectionism and procrastination
-
Build self-confidence and assertiveness
-
Navigate difficult conversations and workplace dynamics
-
Manage performance anxiety and overthinking
-
Set goals and follow through with clarity
CBT provides the tools and frameworks to handle everyday psychological challenges and is particularly effective for high-functioning clients looking to improve mental fitness.
By integrating EMDR and CBT, Ily supports clients in both healing the past and strengthening the present — combining deep inner work with practical progress.

Alongside his general practice, Ily Tsare works as a career counsellor and business psychologist, supporting professionals, founders, and leadership teams in navigating transitions, overcoming internal barriers, and growing sustainably — both personally and professionally.

-

Emotional resilience training
EMDR addresses deep-rooted emotional blocks that can quietly derail decision-making, motivation, and leadership. Whether it’s a past professional failure, fear of judgment, or internalized pressure to succeed — EMDR helps process these at the nervous system level, creating more space for clarity and resilience.
CBT complements this work by offering structured tools to shift negative thought patterns, develop assertiveness, improve stress management, and enhance executive functioning
