I’m a licensed professional clinical counselor in Ohio and a retired Air Force veteran. I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, trauma, PTSD, grief, relationship concerns, and life changes. You might be feeling overwhelmed by something happening now, or you may be ready to work through experiences you’ve carried for years. We can start with whatever feels most important to you. Some of the people I work with find themselves replaying conversations, saying yes when they want to say no, or going quiet when they feel hurt. Others are adjusting to a loss, feeling anxious without knowing why, or trying to figure out why the same conflicts keep coming up. Together, we can explore how your experiences have shaped the way you cope, trust others, and ask for what you need. My approach is warm, collaborative, and structured. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and Master Resilience Trainer, I bring experience helping people make sense of what they’re feeling and find practical ways to respond. That might mean practicing how to set a boundary, finding ways to get through an anxious moment, or making room for grief when everyone around you seems to have moved on. We’ll work at a pace that feels manageable and focus on changes that matter to you outside of sessions.

I'm Ashley Harper, MSW, LISW-S, a Licensed Independent Social Worker with supervisory designation and the proud owner of Serenity Pathways Behavioral Health Services, LLC. I am passionate about helping individuals and couples navigate life's challenges, strengthen relationships, embrace their authentic selves, and achieve meaningful emotional and personal growth. My practice is rooted in compassion, inclusivity, authenticity, and the belief that everyone deserves a safe, affirming, and judgment-free environment. I work with adults and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, personality disorders, emotional dysregulation, grief, relationship difficulties, intimacy concerns, and challenges related to sexual health and wellness. A significant focus of my work involves intimacy, sexuality, and relationship dynamics. I provide sex-positive, LGBTQ+ affirming, kink-aware, and consensual non-monogamy-affirming care. Whether you are exploring sexual identity, navigating desire discrepancies, addressing sexual shame, rebuilding intimacy, healing from sexual trauma, or working through challenges associated with polyamory, ethical non-monogamy, or BDSM dynamics, my goal is to provide a supportive space where difficult or sensitive conversations can occur openly and without fear of judgment. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed interventions. Treatment is individualized because no two people, relationships, or experiences are identical. My therapeutic style combines genuine empathy, honesty, humor, direct communication, and practical tools. I believe therapy should feel like a collaborative partnership where you are supported, appropriately challenged, and empowered to make meaningful changes. Above all, I want clients to know they do not need to hide parts of themselves to be accepted. Whether you are seeking emotional stability, deeper intimacy, healthier boundaries, greater self-awareness, or stronger relationships, you deserve care that recognizes and respects the whole person.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
