In 2015, Dr John Bosco Lee founded The Adelphi Psych Medicine Clinic. He invited a core group of like-minded therapists comprising counsellors and psychologists to join his practice, they are experienced, caring and competent in their respective clinical practice. Adelphi Psych Medicine Clinic provides psychotherapy and medication to alleviate the discomfort and distress of emotional pain commonly experienced in depression (e.g. major depressive disorders, persistent depressive disorders, premenstrual dysphoric disorder), anxiety (e.g. generalised anxiety disorder, panic disorders), bipolar mood disorders, obsessive compulsive disorders, posttraumatic stress disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorders.
Dr John Bosco Lee graduated from the National University of Singapore (NUS) in 1994 and entered private practice as a psychiatrist in Singapore after about twenty years in civil service. He was previously head of psychiatric outpatient and inpatient service in a government agency for four years. He has received advance training in clinical hypnosis from the London College of Clinical Hypnosis, training in psychotherapy for the stabilisation and treatment of psychological trauma. In addition to prescribing psychiatric medication when indicated, he uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), eye movement desensitisation reprocessing (EMDR) and clinical hypnotherapy for treating posttraumatic stress disorders, anxiety disorders and depressive disorders.
He received two sponsorships for post-graduate training during which he obtained a Masters degree in Medicine (Psychiatry) from National University of Singapore (NUS) in 2003 and a Masters degree in Science (Clinical Forensic Psychiatry) from King’s College London (KCL) in 2012. He was a recipient of the Barry Prize from King’s College London. He was elected to be an Associate of King’s College (AKC) and a Fellow of the Academy of Medicine Singapore (FAMS).
He had worked at the Institute of Mental Health in Singapore (child guidance clinic, general psychiatry, addiction and forensic psychiatry), at a restructured hospital, in the Singapore Armed Forces (Psychological Care Centre and SAF Ward), at the Changi Prison Complex and attachments at overseas institutions such as HM Prison Brixton and medium security hospitals. Dr John Bosco Lee provides assessment of mental capacity in determining legal competency. He passionately believes that people with mental illnesses who offend should not be just subjected to the punitive aspect of the legal system but be accurately assessed before sentencing, be given appropriate treatment, receive rehabilitation and be prepared for their eventual recovery and re-integration into society. He had provided expert witness testimony at the Military Court, State Court, Family Court and the Supreme Court.
He is a certified Diving Medical Officer from the Naval Undersea Medical Institute (99-10-DMO) of the United States Navy. The diver’s reflex of “stop, breathe and think” is a deeply ingrained DNA in him as he reassuringly helps patients navigate through the toughest challenges of psychotherapy and psychiatry.
