Shawn Lee Ji Kwan is a clinical psychologist, currently a visiting psychologist at Hospital Selayang Pain Clinic, the Head of Science at Naluri Life, and the co-founder of Psycle Consultancy Psychological Services. He obtained his PhD from Universiti Putra Malaysia, MClinPsych from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysian, and BPsych from HELP University College. Shawn’s doctoral research was on the use of clinical hypnosis to manage post-surgical acute pain and psychological distress to reduce the risk of chronic post-surgical pain.
Shawn has been practicing since 2011 where he specializes in the use of non-pharmacological treatment for pain management. Given that chronic pain is often accompanied by insomnia, Shawn has also acquired advance training in the treatment of insomnia to better serve his patients. After witnessing that even individuals with intense chronic pain can improve in sleep with proper non-pharmacological treatment, Shawn is convinced that most cases of secondary insomnia can be managed without medication.
Shawn is a member of the Malaysian Society of Clinical Psychology (MSCP, a full member of the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH), and a life member of the Malaysian Association for the Study of Pain (MASP). In addition, Shawn sits on the Board of Editorial Consultants for the International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis (IJCEH), a leading journal in the field of medical hypnosis.
