SAN ANGELO – Dr. Sangeeta Singg, a professor of psychology at Angelo State University, has been appointed by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to the Texas State Board of Examiners of Psychologists (TSBEP) for a term that will run through October 31, 2025.

The nine-member TSBEP regulates the practice of psychology in the state of Texas. Its mission is to protect and promote the welfare of the people of Texas by ensuring that the practice of psychology is provided by qualified and competent practitioners who adhere to the established professional standards. Four of the TSBEP members must be licensed psychologists, and Dr. Singg is now one of those four.

“I feel blessed and honored to have the opportunity to serve the state of Texas and my discipline in this capacity,” Singg said. “This appointment is a major milestone in my career because it validates that I have reached a stage of maturity in my profession that facilitates service to the public and an important role in monitoring and making the rules and policies for the practice of psychology.”

The TSBEP also oversees three types of licenses for the practice of psychology: Licensed Psychologist, Licensed Psychological Associate, and Licensed Specialist in School Psychology.

An ASU faculty member since 1981, Dr. Singg teaches psychology classes in the Department of Psychology and Sociology. She has also served as a faculty advisor for the Graduate Student Psychological Association for 35 years.

Dr. Sangeeta’s dedication to her profession has garnered her numerous awards, including:

    Top Honors with an Award for Meritorious Service from PAGWT
    Jimmy Alvarez Friend of Counseling Award from Three Rivers Counseling Association
    ASU Alumni Association Distinguished Faculty Achievement Award
    Phi Delta Kappa Research Award
    Outstanding Leadership in Psychology Award from PAGWT

Singg holds a bachelor’s degree from Punjab University, a master’s degree from Mississippi State University in sociology, and a master’s and doctoral degree in psychology from East Texas State University (now Texas A&M-Commerce). She is also a licensed psychologist and a certified applied clinical nutritionist.

Congratulations from one Ram Fam ASU alum, 2006 to another, Dr. Sangeeta, one of ASU's best in her profession and worthy of such a prestigious honor. God bless you!
