Both services mention S$80. Here’s what that figure covers, what changes the cost and how you get from an enquiry to an appointment.

Mind What Matters also publishes a psychologist rate on its price list. Psychological assessment is a separate service. If you’re trying to decide which kind of appointment you need, start with our guide to counsellors, psychologists and psychiatrists.

If Saturday is the only day you can make it

Mind What Matters lists a S$20 per hour surcharge on Saturdays and Sundays on its pricing page. The clinic’s FAQ says you spend 50 minutes with the therapist in an hour block; the rest is used for notes and administration. Use the clinic’s confirmed total for the specific appointment when comparing weekend costs.

Imagine you usually reach home after seven and you share a room. An online slot saves you the trip, but the time doesn’t help if you can’t talk freely. If you have a private space on weekday evenings, Counsilio has after-work slots and can discuss a time you can keep. If you’d be more comfortable meeting in person, see the Devonshire Road clinic’s contact page and factor in both the trip and the price for the day you can attend. Our guide to online and in-person therapy can help you make that call.

Both services can recommend a practitioner

Mind What Matters’ booking page says the clinic asks about your concerns and therapist preferences, then suggests a practitioner and shares their usual availability. Its team page explains individual roles and links to profiles. For example, one provisional counsellor profile describes current postgraduate counselling training and named supervision. That’s the clinic’s description of that practitioner’s arrangement; the fee category alone doesn’t tell you who you’d see.

With Counsilio, we speak with you about what’s been difficult and what would make sessions workable, including your preferences, budget and timing. We take responsibility for counsellor quality and recommend a suitable match. If the match doesn’t work for you, we’ll listen and help you explore a change. See how guided matching works.

You can keep the first message simple: “I’m looking for help with work stress. I can usually speak in private after seven. Can we start by talking about what would fit my budget?” You can share more when you’re ready.

When is the appointment confirmed?

For Mind What Matters, you can start with its enquiry form or contact options. The clinic says it sends a registration form to confirm once you’ve chosen a suitable slot. Its linked pricing and booking pages don’t specify the individual-session cancellation cutoff or payment deadline, so don’t assume they match another provider’s terms.

For Counsilio, the homepage leads to a WhatsApp enquiry. The team discusses your needs and explains the proposed arrangement before you decide, then arranges your appointment separately. Counsilio allows cancellation up to 12 hours before the session. If you already have an appointment and need to change it, use the contact from that arrangement.
