About Caitlin

Caitlin Singletary draws on a client-centered framework grounded in evidence-based methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to support people navigating grief, depression, relationship concerns, and life transitions.

Background and approach

Licensed in Louisiana, she brings 14 years of clinical experience across independent practice and VA hospital settings, and she emphasizes the client as the expert in their own story. Her approach prioritizes collaboration and practical strategies that align with each person’s values and goals.

Singletary has training in trauma-focused treatments and reproductive mental health therapies, and she applies those skills when clients face infertility, perinatal or reproductive mood concerns, chronic illness, or caregiving stress. She also works with issues related to LGBT matters, blended family challenges, communication problems, divorce and separation, and complicated bereavement.

Caitlin earned her doctorate from Louisiana Tech University in 2012 and practices as LA Psychologist 1258, offering a blend of compassion and structured interventions to help clients move forward.

Practical approaches for online care and treatment planning

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where the therapist follows the client’s lead and helps build on existing strengths; this style supports people working through relationship difficulties, grief, and life transitions by emphasizing collaboration and validation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more effective patterns, which can be useful for depression, anxiety, and coping with chronic health challenges. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their own goals and resolve ambivalence about change, making it helpful for clients facing difficult decisions or transitions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together, and the therapist will help evaluate which methods fit a client’s goals, preferences, and progress. That collaborative process may combine elements from different modalities so treatment can be adjusted as needs evolve.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals in formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it possible to schedule care around work, caregiving, or medical appointments and to continue therapy during life changes while maintaining continuity with a single clinician.
