Hi, I’m Ashley Pearce, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California. I am passionate about providing therapy in a safe, compassionate, non-judgmental environment to support you in identifying your goals and achieving meaningful change. I have a professional background in a hospital environment, supporting patients through major medical decisions, stressful life transitions, new parenthood, anxiety, depression, and loss. I look forward to partnering with you!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, I'll be gathering more information about your current needs and what you hope to get out of therapy. We'll create a personalized plan for moving forward together. You'll have an opportunity to ask questions and assess if we are a good fit- it's important to me that clients are comfortable!
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I blend evidence-based, complementary modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strength-Based Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I have specialized training in integrative behavioral health methods, understanding the importance of a healthy mind, body, and spirit in overall wellness.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I use individualized, evidence-based practices that utilize your personal strengths, while building new coping skills. I maintain a small caseload, enabling me to tailor my approach for each client. I take a whole-person approach, working towards optimizing wellness in all areas of your life.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I love working with adults in their 20s and 30s as they navigate this complex phase of life. I principally work with clients who are dealing with anxiety and/or depression symptoms, building skills and working together to define and accomplish their goals.
