Heather Singh is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate who is passionate about helping individuals, children, and families build stronger connections and navigate life’s challenges with greater resilience. She earned her Master’s Degree in Professional Counseling from Texas State University, a CACREP-accredited program, as well as a Master’s Degree in Education from Long Island University in Brooklyn. She also received a Bachelor’s Degree in Education with a concentration in biological sciences from the State University of New York at Fredonia.
For over 20 years, Heather has worked with people across the lifespan—from early childhood through adulthood—helping them explore, learn, and grow in understanding of themselves and the world around them. Her background includes work in museums, schools, and community organizations, as well as leadership roles supporting teams, fostering collaboration, and cultivating personal and professional growth. These experiences have strengthened her belief in the power of relationships, empathy, and authentic connection.
In her therapeutic work, Heather integrates evidence-based approaches that nurture emotional insight and meaningful change while honoring each client’s unique strengths and story. She partners with clients to identify patterns, perspectives, and emotions contributing to distress and supports them in moving toward greater clarity, balance, and fulfillment. Heather believes that within safe and supportive relationships, healing and growth naturally emerge—helping clients embrace change, take healthy risks, and develop a deeper sense of self.
Heather has specialized training in supporting children, adolescents, and parents experiencing relational or emotional distress. She draws on evidence-based modalities such as Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT), Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to promote connection, healing, and emotional regulation.
Originally from New York, Heather has called Austin home since 2012. Outside of her counseling work, she enjoys spending time with her husband and two children—often exploring local parks or discovering a great new place to eat. She also loves reading, listening to music, and relaxing with a good movie.
