Gala Oliver-Singh, LPC

Gala Oliver-Singh is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with more than two decades of experience helping people respond differently to life’s changes. She focuses on creating a calm space where clients can name what feels hard and try new ways of handling stress and anxiety. Gala draws on her own journey to guide others toward clearer choices and renewed confidence.

She uses a client-centered, relational style that keeps the person’s goals in the lead. Sessions are practical and collaborative. Clients work together with her to identify small, doable behavior changes and steps they can take between meetings.

Gala has worked in outpatient clinics, schools, and community programs. She has supported people dealing with depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, and parenting strains. She also brings focused experience with LGBT identity and ethnic minority concerns, blended family issues, and communication problems.

Her approach blends talk and action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps clients notice unhelpful thinking and build different habits. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation grounded in each person’s values and pace. Gala aims to help people find what fits their life and make steady progress.

People who choose her often want practical tools, clearer boundaries, and help coping with career or family change. She encourages a trusting process where small steps lead to new patterns of living and better emotional balance.

How Gala’s approaches guide online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the client’s pace. It helps people feel heard and discover solutions that match their values and day-to-day life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and manage stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gala will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She encourages trying techniques and checking in to adjust the plan based on what actually helps.

Confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let clients use quieter surroundings, avoid camera use if preferred, or schedule appointments around work or school commitments. Licensed professionals tailor sessions so therapy works around daily life rather than the other way around.
