See H. Ameeta's Details for:
H. Ameeta Singh is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, based in the Bay Area. She holds a Master of Arts (Counseling Psychology) from the California Institute of Integral Studies.
Ameeta is originally from Fiji; of South Asian descent. As an immigrant woman of color, her personal, professional and academic experiences have provided her with knowledge and awareness around issues of race, class, ethnicity, privilege and oppression. She views psychotherapy as a process for healing and change; a means through which individuals can connect with their inherent strength, resiliency and power to create transformation in their lives and their relationships.
Ameeta's work with clients centers around the wounded self. She supports individuals to cultivate deeper insight and understanding about the ways in which their life experiences, internal narratives, core belief systems and ways of being in the world, impact their behaviors, choices and decision-making. By cultivating deeper awareness and insight, clients have felt empowered to change internal narratives and behaviors that may negatively impact their quality of life; as well as develop healthy coping strategies to effectively manage circumstances they may not yet, be to change.
Ameeta draws upon an individual's strengths, culture, spirituality and community as a means of facilitating healing, transformation and change. Her therapeutic approach is grounded in racial and social justice principles; is trauma informed and trauma focused. She incorporates mindfulness based, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral and somatic based techniques to support clients to manage the challenges they are experiencing.
She has extensive experience working with people from diverse backgrounds including communities of color, immigrant communities, formerly or currently incarcerated individuals and the LGBTQ+ community. She is passionately committed to inclusivity, intentionality and integrity in all areas of her life.
