​Panelist Profile:

​Sophia Klopp

​As a Certified Positive Discipline Parent Coach, Trauma-Informed Facilitator, and Co-Director for Chapter Zero Singapore, Sophia Klopp is dedicated to empowering parents, caregivers, and educators in cultivating authentic connections with children. With three children of her own, aged 18, 14, and 9, Sophia believes parenthood is a continuous journey of learning, adapting, and growing alongside our children, as we shape not only their lives but also our own.

​Sophia co-founded Positive Discipline Singapore and has led numerous workshops and webinars for diverse audiences, including parents, caregiver, and educators. Her sessions provide evidence-based Positive Discipline strategies aimed at equipping children with crucial social and life skills. Additionally, she imparts techniques of Mindful Communication derived from Parent Effectiveness Training (PET) and Non-Violent Communication (NVC).

​Renee Chong

​With 17 years of experience as an educator, including roles as a teacher, Subject Head, and Head of Department at a Junior College in Singapore, I later served as a policy officer before stepping away to pursue a more personal mission. Today, I’m the COO of MangaChat, an AI-powered mental health platform for children and youths.

​As a single mother of two teenage daughters, I’ve learned—through both my work and personal journey—that empathetic communication matters far more than perfect parenting. From battling self-condemnation to becoming a confident and grounded parent, I now advocate for meaningful connection, mental resilience, and emotional well-being in both families and schools.

​Cheung Hoi Shan

​Dr Cheung began her research career in 2004 at the Singapore Children’s Society, a voluntary welfare organisation where she conducted research and advocacy on parenting and children’s development in Singapore. She obtained a Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology from the National University of Singapore (NUS) in 2014, and focused primarily on how parental sensitivity is related to children’s peer relationships in pre-school based on attachment theory. During her doctoral years, she was trained to conduct observations of caregiver sensitivity using several paradigms. She continued to develop her research in attachment theory and applying it to multiple social contexts, such as school bullying, as a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Psychology at NUS and later a visiting scholar in the Department of Human Development and Family Studies at Purdue University. Her current research focuses the functional meaning of parenting practices in the Asian context, and how these may have an impact on children’s self-regulation and well-being. Dr. Cheung joined the National Institute of Education, Nanyang Technological University in 2023.

​Moderator: 

​Natalie Goh

​Leading growth and strategy for the training and education arm of youth mental health nonprofit Over-The-Rainbow (OTR), what drives Natalie most is turning complex ideas into stories that resonate. Her love for storytelling extends beyond the workplace into ground-up social initiatives like Working Moms Asia where she explores the nuances of parenting, relationships and mental wellbeing. Of all the roles she plays, her favourite is Chief Storyteller at home with her partner Andrew Tan and two boys.

​About The OTR Academy:

​The OTR Academy is youth mental health charity Over-The-Rainbow’s response to a national need: building a community-led, preventative framework that addresses the urgent mental health crisis. Through structured, science-backed courses, our goal is to equip everyday individuals - from parents and educators to colleagues and friends - with the knowledge, tools, and hands-on experience to become frontline mental health champions in their own circles so that we can build a society where youths feel seen, supported and safe.
