Solution oriented

I specialize in working with adults and teens who are navigating stress, life transitions, trauma, anxiety, depression, borderline personality disorder, and other challenges that impact daily life. I also support individuals experiencing women’s health concerns, postpartum transitions, LGBTQIA identity exploration, college‑related stress, and the unique pressures that come with caregiving roles. I will work collaboratively on goals and ensure you feel safe and heard through the process. With 15 years of experience in the behavioral health field, I draw from evidence‑based approaches including DBT, CBT, ACT, complex trauma CBT, somatic therapy, and mindfulness. My style is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space.

First session

I will collaborate with you on goals, explore expectations and discuss treatment modalities. I will create a safe and nonjudgemental environment for you to start to feel better.

Strengths

I am empathetic and compassionate about helping others. I am knowledgeable in various methods of therapy which helps me in meeting my clients where they are in their healing journey.

Ideal clients

People who come to see me are often carrying a lot — emotionally, mentally, or relationally — and want a space that feels steady and supportive. They may be navigating trauma, chronic stress, identity concerns, or emotional dysregulation. They’re looking for a therapist who is warm, direct, and invested in helping them build clarity and resilience. If this sounds like what you are looking for, I would be happy to help support you.

I highly recommend my therapist! She has given me incredible tools to better understand my values, grow as a person, and navigate my relationships in healthier ways. She creates a safe, supportive environment where I always feel heard and encouraged. I'm truly grateful for her guidance and the positive impact she's had on my personal growth and continues to do.

Ashley was very open, warm, and authentic. I felt very supported and understood by her. She took the time to really listen, and asked thought-provoking questions, as well. She took the time to get to know me and my concerns, which I appreciated very much. It's been a very long time since I've had someone to share my feelings with, and for them to really listen.
