Ashley is no stranger to life’s struggles; she has had her fair share of trials and tribulations from surviving divorce, domestic/narcissistic abuse, loss of a parent, late in life career transition, and fertility issues. Using her life experiences and professional knowledge, Ashley aspires to help clients overcome life’s challenges and adversities. I understand that feelings such as fear, failure, and hopelessness can be overwhelming. I've personally experienced similar struggles such as divorce, death of a parent, fertility issues, and navigating through domestic abuse. Life can become difficult however, there is HOPE! I was once just surviving and now I am thriving. And YOU can too! It's important to remember that you don't have to bear the weight of the world and your struggles alone. I'm here to help you work through those challenges, and together we can work to build YOU a life filled with hope, peace, and happiness. Let's start this journey! As a Texas-based therapist, I specialize in treating trauma, narcissistic abuse, grief, anxiety, and depression, working with clients of all ages, including children 10+, teens, and adults, from diverse backgrounds and experiences.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

The first session is an intake. During the session, I will gather information on therapy goals, symptoms, and background information such as medical health, previous treatment, family history. Also, I will explain the therapy process, review paperwork, and answer any questions you may have. Then I will create a treatment based on your mental health needs with your input.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strength as a therapist is that I truly care about my clients! I love my job and being able to help others to overcome challenges in their lives! My goal is to give hope to others and that change can happen and one can live a happy life. My passion lies in helping others in achieving hope, happiness, and peace. I believe you deserve hope for healing and hope for happiness in your life. If you're struggling and experiencing difficulties in life and not sure what to do or how to begin, I am here for YOU! You don't have to navigate these challenges alone, and it is possible to overcome them with guidance and a little direction.

My treatment methods

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

SFBT is a short-term form of psychotherapy that focuses on solutions rather than on gaining insight into challenges and concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT can be an effective tool to help anyone learn how to better manage stressful life situations. Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to treat a wide range of issues. It's often the preferred type of psychotherapy because it can quickly help you identify and cope with specific challenges.

Trauma Informed Care

Trauma informed therapy addresses the symptoms & behaviors resulting from trauma & empowers individuals with long-term healing & resilience.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a type of talk therapy (psychotherapy). It’s based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), but it’s specially adapted for people who experience emotions very intensely. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of talk therapy that helps people understand how thoughts affect emotions and behaviors.

Attachment-based

Therapy for grief, or grief counseling as it is often called, is designed to help you process and cope with a loss — whether that loss is a friend, family member, pet, or other life circumstance. Grief affects everyone differently. It also affects people at different times.
