Welcome Dr. Chhavi Singhal!
I am excited to be joining Skaneateles Psychology Associates, where I will be offering therapy for children, adolescents, young adults, and families. Making the decision to seek therapy for yourself or your child can sometimes be challenging. In my practice, I prioritize providing a safe, validating environment and a non-judgmental relationship where we can work through difficulties together.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step for yourself, your child, or your family, and my goal is to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you feel supported, understood, and empowered. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and young adults, as well as supporting families navigating challenges together. I have experience with individuals on the autism spectrum and those navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral challenges, and parenting or family stress. I also provide comprehensive psychological assessments for ADHD and autism for school-age children through adolescents.
I enjoy working with teens and young adults exploring identity development, life transitions, and relationship concerns. My approach is flexible and integrative, drawing from evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, and psychodynamic therapy.
Whether you're seeking support for your child, hoping to better manage emotions, or working through family or life transitions, we’ll work together at a pace that feels comfortable. I believe healing happens through connection, and I’m here to help you take that next step.

Online Therapy
In response to Covid-19 (Coronavirus), Skaneateles Psychology Associates has launched Telehealth sessions to offer a safer way to see your provider from the comfort of your own home during these difficult times. Our therapists are licensed to provide services to residents of New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
Skaneateles Psychology Associates features a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform for online therapy sessions that is fully integrated into your patient portal. Our providers offer the full array of personalized, effective, and evidence-based behavioral health services that are available in-person through telehealth. You can receive access to your provider from any device that connects to the internet.

ONLINE THERAPY FAQ:
1. WHAT IS AN ONLINE APPOINTMENT LIKE?
An online appointment is just like a regular appointment. You sit in front of the camera on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) where you will be able to see yourself and your SPA provider. Once you have started your appointment, patients and providers will interact, just as they would for a traditional office appointment.
2. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT. HOW DO I PREPARE?
Make sure to check your internet connection 5-10 minutes before your scheduled appointment. You log into your patient portal and be sure you are ready to click on the link to access the session.
3. ARE ONLINE SESSIONS COVERED BY INSURANCE?
Most insurers currently cover online visits in the same way they would cover in-person visits. Check with your insurer to inquire about your individual coverage.
4. ARE THE APPOINTMENTS PRIVATE AND SECURE?
At SPA, patient privacy and protection is our top priority. Just like a visit to the office to see your provider, online services are entirely confidential and compliant with HIPAA regulations.
5. WHAT HAPPENS IF I AM NOT ABLE TO CONNECT?
As a result of the pandemic situation we are experiencing and the increased demand for online services occasionally our HIPAA compliant telehealth servers are overloaded. State and federal regulations have been broadened during this time so that we are permitted to utilize other servers as a backup if necessary.
