Hello! My name is Ashlyn and I am a licensed clinical social worker who has been in the social work field for over 12 years. I graduated from Indiana University. My experiences range from working with individuals with intellectual abilities, group facilitation, domestic violence advocacy, therapy and public health social work. I have worked with a variety of clients on issues ranging from stress management, anxiety, depression, postpartum, family and martial problems. I have an additional certification in Perinatal Mental Health. I am a firm believer in therapy and what it can do for the mind and the soul. I believe that our childhood trauma can be a huge impact on our adult life. It is resiliency that gets us through it. I have work with many individuals of all color, culture, religion, background and experiences. I use a variety of therapeutic frameworks such as solution focused, motivational interviewing, trauma focused, dialectical behavioral and cognitive behavioral therapy. I am constantly learning and maintaining my competency of skills. Hello! I'm Ashlyn and I'm a licensed clinical social worker who has been in the field for 12 years.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During the first session, you can expect a safe space to let it all out! This first session is designed for me to get to know you, your background, upbringing, support system and how I can help you reach your goal for therapy. We will discuss what brought you to therapy and what you would like to see going forward.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am human just like you. Although I may not have experience some of the exact same situations you may be going through, I have experience the ups and downs of life. So I will meet you where you are on this journey. It is up to you where you want to go and how soon you want to get there.
