I deeply value communication and being an active listener to my patients. I provide direct feedback on the issues they are working through. It takes a great deal of courage to seek counseling, so I work with my patients to reach their goals.

I help people navigate change: going to college, having a child, mourning the loss of a loved one, ending a relationship, grieving expectations and hopes around fertility, and so much more. If you have found yourself in the midst of a change or are looking for your life to feel different, you are in the right place and I am here to help. My goal is to come alongside you and meet you where you are...to be with you as you dig deeper. Together we can work to heal pain from the past and help change your future. Book with me now by clicking on my website. We will work together to create a plan to help you reach your goals. Call or message today to talk about a plan for your needs. I approach therapy from a psychodynamic framework and blend Emotion-Focused and Mindfulness-based interventions to help support each person's individual goals. Having someone with you to validate your feelings while you navigate change can be a powerful experience and I would be honored to be that person for you. The right therapeutic fit can make all of the difference so give me a call or send a message and we can find a time to talk about if we might be a good fit.

I have over 20 years of experience as a therapist, and I want to get to know you as a whole person and in the context of your relationships, your interests, how you make a living, and your beliefs. For couples, this also applies, as well as my POV on seeing the relationship as the client and taking a non-blaming approach. I use a combination of listening, support, validation, education, teaching skills, and providing eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and all of these can be dialed up or back based on what you need and prefer. My style is open and direct, and you can ask me about any part of the process.

Compassionate and dedicated Psychiatric and Family Nurse Practitioner with experience providing comprehensive primary care across the lifespan. I’m skilled in conducting health assessments, diagnosing and treating acute and chronic conditions, ordering and interpreting diagnostic tests, prescribing medications, and developing individualized treatment plans. I’m committed to delivering evidence-based, patient-centered care, with an emphasis on disease prevention, health promotion, and patient education. I also have experience collaborating with multidisciplinary healthcare teams to improve patient outcomes and support high-quality, efficient care. I bring strong communication, clinical decision-making, and relationship-building skills, with a focus on compassionate, culturally competent care.

I believe that the best way to help you is to listen to the changes that you would like to make, and develop a treatment plan specific to your concerns and your personality. In many cases, no one therapeutic approach fits every one or every issue, so my goal is to make a you feel comfortable and understand more about your personal journey. The decision to pursue therapy can be difficult for many people, but it indicates that you want to change or improve certain aspects of your life, creating stronger relationships, a higher level of self-confidence, more focus and direction and many other areas for improvement.

You know something needs to change, but you are not sure where to start. The anxiety has become a daily weight. The trauma you thought time would heal still surfaces in ways you did not expect, in your relationships, your sleep, your ability to feel like yourself. The strategies you have relied on, staying busy, pushing through, trying to manage it alone, are running out of steam. And the idea of sitting in a therapist's office rehashing the same surface-level conversations does not exactly inspire confidence. I get it. That is exactly why I built my practice the way I did. I am Dr. Ashvind Adkins Singh, a licensed clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience and doctoral training in both neuropsychology and psychopharmacology. What that means in plain terms: I understand how your brain, your nervous system, and your life history all interact to create the patterns that keep you stuck. I do not just help you "cope." I help you understand the machinery behind your distress so you can actually change it. My clinical work sits at the intersection of three areas that most therapists treat separately: evidence-based psychotherapy, mindfulness practices backed by decades of my own published research, and deep experiential work that goes beyond traditional talk therapy. I developed the THRIVE Model, a structured treatment framework for trauma recovery that helps clients move from surviving to genuinely thriving. It is built on clinical science, grounded in how the brain actually processes and stores traumatic experience, and designed to create lasting change rather than temporary relief. Many of my clients come to me because they want therapy that goes deeper than coping strategies. They are people who are ready to actually understand what is driving their anxiety, their trauma responses, or their sense of being stuck, and they want a therapist who can explain the "why" behind what they are experiencing. I bring the rigor of a researcher (77+ peer-reviewed publications), the perspective of an international advisor, and the presence of a clinician who has worked in settings ranging from state hospitals to private practice. For clients interested in psychedelic-assisted approaches, I also offer specialized integration support informed by both clinical training and published research. I specialize in anxiety, trauma and PTSD, depression, and the kind of emotional exhaustion that builds up when life demands more than your current tools can handle. My approach draws from cognitive-behavioral methods, mindfulness-based interventions, neuropsychological assessment, and integrative frameworks. I also offer services via telehealth across 27+ states through PSYPACT, in addition to in-person sessions in California and Virginia. My clients often tell me that working together feels different from past therapy. It is direct, collaborative, and grounded in science without feeling cold or clinical. I take the time to understand not just what you are feeling but why your brain is producing those feelings, and then we work together to shift the underlying patterns. If you are ready for therapy that actually matches the way you think, I would welcome the chance to talk. Reach out today to schedule a consultation.

Because therapy is not “one-size-fits-all,” our sessions will be adapted based on your specific needs, tailoring the sessions to align with your goals. No matter the challenges you are experiencing, I am committed to collaborating with you on your journey toward your best life. With time and therapeutic support, we can all heal, achieve growth, and become the best versions of ourselves. My mission is to create a secure and empathetic space where you can openly express yourself, gain intrapersonal insight, and feel truly heard. If you are ready to embark on a path of healing, growth, and self-discovery, I am here to support you. We will utilize an eclectic approach of therapies, drawing from solution focused, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to name a few. Incorporating a holistic perspective, we will consider the impact that past experiences, trauma, and the body have on your life and work toward lasting change. I look forward to working with you and beginning this compassion filled and judgement free journey toward your inner peace.

There are times in all of our lives where we find ourselves at a crossroads. Do I continue on the path I am on, or is it time to pause, dig in, and face my fear, addiction, compulsion, hesitancy, anger, patterns, issues, struggles, etc.? This can be a very frightening crossroads, and having the courage to face ourselves, our past and what may be before us can be very fleeting. I meet people at this crossroads, and together we "dig in", and begin to explore what needs exploring, mend what needs mending, fight what needs fighting and forgive what needs forgiving. As they say in AA, I believe we are spiritual beings in physical world and as a Pastoral Counselor I am able and willing to explore how these two realities are integrated in our lives. Please feel free to give me a call with any of your questions or concerns.

Are you uncertain about your relationship? Perhaps trust has been broken, feelings have shifted, or another connection is calling your attention. These doubts can feel overwhelming, isolating, and confusing. Take a step today—explore your feelings, clarify your values, and navigate your decision-making process. Begin your path to insight, peace, and understanding. You don’t have to face this alone.

One of my favorite quotes is: "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away." To me, life is a journey. There will be many bumps, bruises, and obstacles along the way. That's okay. It's how you overcome those hurdles that count. Some need more assistance than others on this journey, and that's okay too. My approach is to promote healing and personal growth and development along this journey called life. I do not claim to have all of the answers. I believe that everyone is the expert of their own lives. My role is to assist you with getting out of your own way and discovering the path that you want to follow.

I specialize in treating anxieties, and feelings of being overwhelmed and stressed in ‘normal’ people like yourself. My practical approaches focus on implementing paths forward for specific problems, as well as addressing generalized angst and emotional distress for which solutions seem elusive. We’ll not just manage symptoms – we’ll challenge assumptions and self-judgments to break old patterns you’ve operated on (perhaps for years), because of past trauma or other experiences. We’ll build new ways of thinking, behaving and responding to your past, present and future challenges. Please call! THERAPY FOCUS On the outside, clients like yourself are stable, purposeful, successful and content. But they quickly express that inside they’re struggling; overwhelmed with feelings of anxiety, stress, frustration and even sadness. Often, there are marital and relationship conflicts. Clients feel stuck in seemingly inescapable patterns, or have specific problems that seem intractable. Then, more issues: job dissatisfaction, marital conflicts (even divorce), or parental child or adolescent challenges – a ‘Polycrisis Syndrome‘. Often clients feel estranged from themselves and family, with goals that seem ambiguous or appear unachievable. Clients want to be heard, validated and acknowledged. I’ll listen. We’ll work together to change that and restore your self-confidence, direction and a strong sense of satisfaction. I offer effective help with problem-solving, marital conflict resolution and reconnection to yourself. I’m a classic psychotherapist, not some A.I.- or minimally experienced internet-social media advisor. My non-judgmental approach balances the need to validate your experiences with the urgency to address and resolve your challenges.

I believe in meeting each client where they are. There is not one way to help someone resolve a problem in their life. I believe in helping my clients find the right path that works for them and following along beside them to provide wisdom in their lives to take the next steps and make better choices. A mental health professional should go above and beyond for their clients and I believe in this whole heartedly. My motto is "get me in your life and out of your life quickly so that you can live happy!"
