Welcome! I am Aubrey G. Ashford, Jr., a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Anger Management Specialist (CAMS) with over 20 years of experience working with adults, children, and families. I am based in Atlanta, GA, and work primarily with clients via telehealth. I received my Masters from Clark-Atlanta University. My specialty focuses on those who suffer with anxiety, anger management, depression, men issues, and self-esteem. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows the client an opportunity to explore/process issues that may impede their ability to function socially and emotionally. I also focus on helping clients to gain a better sense of awareness and how that could be used to navigate their daily challenges.

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

In our first session together, we’ll start with brief introductions, and then discuss your reasons for today’s meeting. With that being said, I will meet the client where they are and collaboratively foster a relationship that creates a safe and welcoming environment. This session may involve crisis intervention, support, advocacy and/or information and referral. I will help the client explore and formulate goals that are important to them. I found that my approach is most effective with helping clients recognize behavioral patterns for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

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

My strengths as a provider comes from 20+ years of experience as a therapist. Over time, I’ve acquired the skills necessary to address client challenges, while allowing them to be their authentic selves. I am an empathetic listener, who aims to help clients identify and remove any barriers to having a healthier existence. My experience has equipped me with the ability to provide clients with a totally unbiased, nonjudgmental person, who will help them to explore obstacles and concerns that impede their growth.
