I have experience with all populations including working directly with sex workers, persons with HIV/ AIDS, all persons affected by substance use, abuse, and addiction (including pregnant
women
and new mothers), and persons in the criminal justice system for offenses ranging from traffic citations and misdemeanors to capital and first degree felonies.
We, as human beings, are all on a path through life dealing with our own unique conflicts (be it interior or exterior) and struggles from our lives before this point. Everyday is a new chance to devote effort in ourselves with a goal to make ourselves better than the day before. We are all striving to be the absolute best version of ourselves we can be, even if your version looks different than the next person's. Even if you are unsure of your own matters of contention and unable to see the prospects of your future, I am dedicated to starting or continuing on this journey with you.

If so, I am here to help and provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to heal.

Therapy for
women
who want to break up with self-doubt, stop people pleasing and heal from the past. You are determined, high achieving, and set high expectations for yourself. You have mastered the art of appearing as if everything is going great, but in reality, you consistently find yourself overthinking every situation and second-guessing yourself. You are a people-pleaser, making it difficult to say no without feeling guilt, and setting boundaries is a foreign concept. You have this intense pressure to do things perfectly to avoid feeling like you don't belong, aka "imposter syndrome."

Beginning therapy, like most new journeys we embark on in life, can be scary. It can also be one of the best decisions you make to put yourself and your mental health first. As a therapist, I come to you as a
woman

Hello! I'm Dr. Harriet Singelyn (she/her) and I provide online therapy to
women
in Texas who are looking to increase their self-esteem, manage anxiety and depression, and cope with perfectionism and burnout. Sound familiar? You struggle to set boundaries and identify as a "people pleaser", often putting others needs above your own. You worry about how you are perceived and often overthink after socializing. You're a perfectionist who holds themselves to a high standard, and no matter how hard you work, you feel like you're not good enough. You feel burnt out, depressed, and want to feel relief so you can live life to the fullest!

I specialize in working with men and
women
who have suffered from childhood sexual abuse using an eclectic approach though my own philosophical orientation is strongly influenced by the existential approach.
If you are reading this you have a definite purpose in mind, you are likely looking for someone to talk to who cares. You want someone to listen to you and to understand you. Inside, where no one sees, your soul is weary. You have tried your best to make life work, but you are exhausted from the pressure and the pretense. Maybe you are one of the countless men or
women
who have been subjected to terrible crimes against their souls through sexual abuse. If you are open to exploring your inner self and facing what is true, then we may be a good fit.

Is online therapy a good option?

To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the United States, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
