ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Hayden

Hayden Koh is a Malaysian researcher and an emerging voice in the field of mental health, child development, health psychology, and sleep. With a strong foundation in psychological science — holding a BA in Psychology with minors in Sociology and Neuroscience — Hayden is currently pursuing his Master’s in Counselling and Psychotherapy to deepen his clinical practice and expand his impact

Hayden is known for his ability to translate and simplify complex psychological ideas into accessible, practical tools for emotional clarity, mindset transformation, and personal growth. His past work focuses on helping individuals—especially children, young people, and neurodivergence individual—navigate emotional regulation, self-awareness, and resilience through structured, empathetic approaches.

Outside of his work, Hayden creates reflective, psychology-based content on Social Media where he explores topics such as mindset, emotional reasoning, and cognitive clarity. His upcoming book, The Real-Truth Theory, introduces a practical framework for identifying and breaking free from common mental distortions (which he called "FACEM") like Filtering, All-or- Nothing, Catastrophizing, Emotional Reasoning, and Mind Reading—empowering readers to see life more clearly and act with greater intention

MY MISSION

BRIDGING THE FUTURE GAP

Mental health education often focuses on symptoms, labels, and surface-level solutions, but real change starts from within. My mission is to bridge the gap between psychological theory and lived emotional experience, making mental health tools accessible, honest, and human..

REAL-WORLD INSIGHTS
I create content and tools grounded in real conversations, emotional patterns, and practical strategies — not just academic jargon. This is psychology that speaks your language.
COMMUNITY BUILDING
Whether you’re a curious thinker, a fellow practitioner, or someone navigating your own healing — you’re not alone. My work is here to connect those who value truth, clarity, and deep self- work
FUTURE-READY PSYCHOLOGY
As we move into a digital, overstimulated world, we need frameworks that are emotionally intelligent, grounded, and adaptable. I’m committed to developing tools that prepare people for a mentally healthier future — starting now
BREAKING MENTAL BARRIERS
From overthinking to emotional reasoning, I challenge the inner distortions that hold us back — and offer practical ways to see clearly, think freely, and move forward.
FUTURE

PHILOSOPHY

MY BELIEFS

INSIGHT OVER IMITATION

While I respect traditional psychology, I believe in challenging outdated models and replacing them with insights that are grounded in real human experience — not just textbook theory..

CONNECTION OVER COMPETITION

Personal growth isn’t a race. I believe in building spaces where people feel safe to explore, share, and support each other without judgment

CLARITY OVER NOISE

In a world filled with mental clutter and overstimulation, I value practical tools that help people slow down, reflect deeply, and see things as they truly are.

FUTURE OVER PAST

We must prepare for the psychology of tomorrow, not just learn the psychology of yesterday.
