About Shipra

Shipra Singh is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or major life changes. She speaks English and Hindi and frames the work so a client can feel heard and understood. Parents concerned about parenting or life balance will find a calm, steady presence to talk things through.

She draws on an integrated approach in sessions. She creates an empathic, nonjudgmental space using client-centered principles so people feel safe to share what matters most.

Background and approach

From there she adds practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, and emotion-regulation skills from dialectical behavior therapy to address symptoms and patterns. Sessions often move between listening and action. Early meetings focus on understanding day-to-day struggles, sleep or eating concerns, grief, trauma, or career and relationship stress.

Later work includes learning new coping skills, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and building routines that support recovery and resilience. Singh has practiced in mental health for 15 years and brings that experience to each session. She also supports women through perinatal and postpartum challenges and offers help for issues such as compassion fatigue, caregiver stress, ADHD, and intimacy-related worries.

People who choose her can expect practical, straightforward guidance. The aim is to reduce immediate distress while building tools for long-term wellbeing. She welcomes clients who want an empathic therapist who also offers concrete strategies.

Approaches that inform online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values, then take small steps toward a life they care about. It is useful when someone feels stuck by worry, avoidance, or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches concrete exercises to change behavior and mood. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and eating concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotions and improving connection in close relationships; it can help with intimacy issues and relationship stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your goals, experiments, and preferences and then suggest a mix of methods that fit your situation. Together you decide which tools to try and adjust the plan as you learn what helps.

Online therapy makes these approaches more flexible. Video calls let you have a conversation that feels close to an in-person visit. Phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging offer shorter check-ins, reminders, or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work, and travel while still getting regular therapeutic guidance.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
