About Us
At The Connected Room, we believe every child and youth has the potential to thrive when given the right support. Our mission is to provide a safe, understanding space where young people can explore their challenges, build resilience, and develop positive behaviours that last a lifetime.
We believe that every behaviour lies a story. We don’t just address surface-level challenges. We look deeper, working closely with children, teens, and their families to strengthen connections and empower change. Using a blend of coaching, counselling and creative approaches such as applied drama and expressive therapy, we help young people gain confidence, emotional awareness, and the skills they need to succeed in school, at home, and in life.
At The Connected Room, connection leads to growth and growth leads to brighter futures.
The Counsellor
Hi! I’m Serene Lim, the counsellor behind The Connected Room.
My journey into counselling began with a deep belief in the power of connection and understanding. Through my work with children and youth, I have witnessed how behaviour often reflects unspoken emotions, unmet needs, and family dynamics beneath the surface. I want to create a safe space where children and young people feel seen, heard, and supported.
As a counsellor, behavioural coach, and expressive therapy practitioner, I bring both professional training and personal empathy into every session. With qualifications in Applied Drama and Psychology in Youth and a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling Psychology, my approach is grounded in compassion and guided by evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), applied drama, and creative expressive modalities.
I use expressive therapy tools—such as art-making, movement, dramatic play, symbolic objects, and storytelling—to help clients express emotions that may be difficult to articulate. This creates deeper emotional processing, healthier regulation, and a more meaningful therapeutic process.
I specialise in working with:
Children and youth navigating behavioural challenges, stress, depression, or identity issues
Parents who are struggling to support or understand their children
Families seeking to strengthen communication and connection
Individuals experiencing challenges and wanting to discover new possibilities for themselves
At The Connected Room, I aim to provide more than just counselling—it’s a place where meaningful connections lead to growth, and growth opens the way to brighter futures.
