Relocation
Support
Moving to
Singapore? This can be an exciting time.
It can also be distressing, leaving behind family
and friends and everything familiar to you.
Living in Singapore is different and will take
some adjustment. Possibly you are having personal
issues with :
- the hot
and humid weather
- the inconvenience
of not having a car
- not knowing
where to shop
- a travelling
spouse
- the high-rise
apartment living
- adjusting
to a live-in maid
- Singapore
services
- the various
health and medical facilities
- inadequate
support from removalist company
- not having
a close friend to call on in times of need
Adjusting
to living in Singapore
counseling
will assist you to manage your emotions as you
adjust to differences in culture and living in
a new location. It will provide the opportunity
for you to explore and understand your emotions
or anxieties in this new environment, also those
of your family members. If desired, Goslings s
can network you with appropriate organisations
and support systems in Singapore.
Repatriation
Issues - Going Home
If you thought
moving abroad was stressful, then prepare for returning
home. You and your family have changed, seen
sights and eaten foods that no one else at home
can even imagine - and so are unlikely to ask about!
Your old friends will be busy doing other things,
the children's school friends will have moved
on, and you may be living close again to your parents
and siblings who have not been part of your life
for many years.
Prepare
for the homecoming...
Plan ahead.
Prepare for the changes. counseling can assist
you to be ready for the weird emotions associated
with settling back home, where you are just an ordinary
person again, but one who doesn't necessarily slot
back in. Brush up on communication skills
so that old negative patterns of behaviour with
family members are not re-established as soon as
you arrive back home.
