My communication style is to foster a safe place for open and honest communication without judgment.

I hope to foster an environment of trust and open communication, built upon mutual respect for each other. I provide transparent expectations to ensure clients are well-informed and feel safe to openly share.

I work collaboratively with my clients to help them learn new coping skills, create positive changes, and attain the goals they have for themselves. My clients view me as supportive, nonjudgmental, and practical. I work with professionals, including MDs and attorneys, as well as stay-at-home moms and students. I specialize in helping people manage anxiety and stress, perfectionism, self-esteem issues, codependency and relationship concerns, and depression. I also support clients who are navigating in vitro fertilization (IVF) and a challenging fertility journey. I help my clients create a more balanced, meaningful, and fun life for themselves. This can include managing negative self-talk, learning to be more assertive and set boundaries, and re-evaluating self-care.

If we could think our way into the life we wanted, we would already be there. But healing and growth is not simply about thinking. It is about attending to our feelings, accepting ourselves where we are, and believing in possibilities. The Four Corners Counseling & Well-being way of therapy, practiced by the founder, Hetty Barnett, and all associates: For Thinking Women (and Men, too): Are you struggling to feel better about yourself and your life? If you are feeling stressed and overwhelmed, if your relationships are causing pain or confusion, we can help. We know from hard-earned experience that being an intelligent "over-functioner" does not mean we can easily soothe our emotional pain and create a balanced life. My associates and I can help you tap into your inner wisdom and strength to create the life you desire. For couples on the brink: At Four Corners Counseling & Well-being, we believe that couples deserve a safe space and a competent therapist to help them navigate their relationship, and move beyond problems to possibilities. This work is sacred, and couples who seek our help are doing so not only for themselves, but for the benefit of their children (if there are any), for their families, and for future generations. We have no pre-determined expectation of how a relationship will unfold. We do firmly believe that any work the members of a couple do to speak for their feelings (not from them) and listen to their partner from a grounded sense of self can reap many benefits in the future, no matter what the outcome. People can grow; people DO grow as they work with me. It takes a village to raise a relationship, and we want to be part of that village.

Does your child struggle with stress and anxiety? Is it difficult for him or her to make positive choices, manage emotions or perform in school? Teenagers and young adults face unique challenges in life, and it can be very overwhelming for them and you, the parent. I work with adolescents and young adults, ages 12-25, to help them understand stress and anxiety. We work together to overcome their obstacles and self-doubts; helping them focus on building positive thinking and behaviors to achieve their life goals. Together, your child and I focus on his or her role in overcoming setbacks, embracing challenges, and utilizing skills like optimism, resilience and grit to achieve his or her ideal self. I employ positive psychology and solution-focused counseling to help your child set priorities, identify goals, and develop strategies for emotional and mental well-being. I understand the difficulties our young adults face everyday and I know each individual is capable of achieving their goals with proper supports! Contact me at MBS Performance Counseling today in order to help your son or daughter take the first step to setting priorities, creating positive thoughts and discovering the amazing things they can accomplish!

I have been working in the helping field related to counseling for almost 20 years. In that time I have learned that the best way to help others is to be an excellent listener, to be compassionate, empathetic, and to collaborate with individuals to assist them in gaining the tools that they need to make positive change in their lives. I work hard to encourage clients that the strength for change lies within them and my job is to help them find it. I utilize a great deal of mindfulness based techniques and believe that learning the process of becoming more mindful in life can be extremely beneficial to problem solving and learning to sit with discomfort. As a counselor I do not believe that I have all of the answers or can fix anyone, however, I do believe that if the client is willing to do the work to create change in their life that I can assist them in doing so successfully. Ultimately, my goal for the counseling relationship is to assist clients in managing stress more effectively and learning skills that can be used well after the counseling relationship has terminated, in a straightforward and honest approach.

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.

If you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you’re carrying more than you let on. Maybe you’ve been trying to hold everything together—your relationships, your career, your confidence—while quietly feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of your next step. You might be tired of overthinking, tired of feeling alone with your thoughts, or tired of pretending you’re “fine” when you know you deserve more than survival mode. I want you to know: you don’t have to do this alone. I’m Alex, and my approach is grounded in compassion, collaboration, and real-world practicality. When you and I work together, you get a space where you can breathe, slow down, and finally talk honestly about what’s going on beneath the surface. I show up as a human first and a therapist second, someone who listens without judgment, helps you untangle the overwhelm, and walks alongside you as you reconnect with yourself. In our sessions, you can expect a blend of evidence-based practices and personalized care. I lean on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), humanistic approaches, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, positive psychology, and, when helpful, accelerated resolution therapy (ART). Whether we’re working through anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, performance blocks, or life transitions, I tailor the process to who you are and what you need, not a one-size-fits-all treatment plan. We’ll identify the patterns that keep you stuck, build healthier ways of thinking and coping, and strengthen the parts of you that are capable, resilient, and ready for change. My goal is for you to feel understood, supported, and empowered, not just in sessions, but in your everyday life. If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you where you are, respect your pace, and help you move toward clarity, balance, and meaningful growth, you’re in the right place. We’ll work together to help you feel more grounded, more connected, and more like yourself again.

My work combines my personal knowledge and experiences of the special challenges and gifts that define the creative experience with insight work and mindfulness-based psychotherapy. I've worked with writers, musicians, dancers, painters, computer programmers, tattoo artists, and more, to help them work through creative issues, relationship problems, anxiety, and many other concerns. In my experience, people who have spent their lives developing their creativity have a unique skillset which is often overlooked as a place from which to draw strength and guidance in building relationships, coping with stress, and making life decisions. I tend to focus on strengths: you might be surprised at what you already know. You can read more about my work with creative people at my external site, linked at left.
