At my core, I am a humanist, existentialist, and a proponent of unconditional self-compassion. I am especially drawn to the moments in therapy where people feel safe enough to speak honestly about the parts of themselves they've carried alone. I value depth, authenticity, humor, and the relief that comes from being fully human in the room with another person. I have come to deeply value my work with adults and people navigating life transitions, grief, identity shifts, meaning, and the emotional complexity that comes with living a full life.

Hi, I'm Ashley! I help women tap into their resilience, restore hope, and transform their lives with authenticity, compassion, and a passion for seeing women thrive. I like to consider myself THE therapist for women. My mission is to help individuals navigate life’s difficulties to become the best possible versions of themselves. Both my clinical and personal experiences have taught me that, though we cannot control everything, we can control our behaviors, perspectives, beliefs, actions, and HEALING. I plan to equip you with the tools needed to promote your overall well-being and facilitate lasting positive change. I hold EMDR and talk therapy sessions with clients who struggle with trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and difficulty navigating challenges and transitions. However, I specialize in perinatal mental health, infertility, and EMDR. In addition, I run a support group for women struggling with infertility. Through additional training and certifications, I have and continue to develop a variety of tools to support you, and I may use different techniques during our work together. Accordingly, my approach is best described as client-centered and strengths-based, drawing also on theories and strategies of cognitive-behavioral therapy. When I am not practicing as a therapist, I am spending time with my family. We love to stuff our faces with tasty food and find new adventures. I also dabble in wedding photography as a creative outlet. But generally, you will find me advocating for women struggling with infertility and all the experiences it brings. I can't wait to work with you!

I love what I do as a Licensed Clinical Therapist. To me, there's no better job than showing people how to use their minds to work for them instead of against them by getting past their mental blocks and past traumas so they don't have to suffer any longer. Specifically, I work with two groups - couples and parents. Couples that aren't communicating very well that have lost that once special connection with their partner and parents struggling with their children's behaviors.

Do you feel stuck in overthinking, anxiety, or constant worry—even when life seems like it should be okay? Maybe your mind won't slow down, you're feeling burned out, or you're struggling in your relationships. You don't have to figure it out alone. I work with individuals and couples who are ready to break out of old patterns and move toward a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we'll explore what's keeping you stuck, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful change that fits your values and goals. Whether you're working through anxiety, trauma, ADHD, relationship challenges, burnout, or a major life transition, therapy is a place to feel heard, gain clarity, and leave with tools you can actually use. I also enjoy helping couples strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and reconnect. My goal is simple: to help you feel more confident, more grounded, and more like yourself again.

Please note I specialize in working with individuals and their caregivers on issues surrounding serious illness, fertility/infertility, onco-survivorship, and postpartum support and am accepting new clients with these concerns. We all have fundamental needs: To belong, to feel understood, to give and receive love, to feel financially secure, to be free from pain. My approach to therapy begins with addressing the impetus that led to scheduling that first appointment, to then addressing core basic needs like sleep, nutrition and social connections. We will work to develop an awareness into emotional states and behaviors that arise out of them. Sometimes, it is the actions of others that are the primary source of our own distress. Even then, we can focus on what is in our control to improve our coping and circumstances.

You love God—but your relationships still feel anxious, consuming, and confusing. You overthink texts, feel deeply affected by someone’s mood or distance, and find yourself giving more than you receive. You’ve prayed about it, tried to “have more faith,” and told yourself to just trust God—but the anxiety keeps showing up anyway. If this sounds familiar, you’re not broken—and you’re not lacking faith. You may be stuck in patterns of anxious attachment and codependency that keep you feeling insecure, even when you desire healthy, God-centered relationships. I specialize in working with Christian women who feel caught in these cycles. In our work together, we don’t just talk about your thoughts—we get to the root of why your nervous system feels unsafe in relationships and begin to change those patterns. You’ll learn how to: • Feel emotionally secure without constant reassurance • Stop overanalyzing and fearing abandonment • Set healthy, confident boundaries • Break cycles of chasing or losing yourself in relationships • Develop a deeper, more grounded trust in both yourself and God My approach integrates evidence-based therapy with your faith in a way that is both practical and deeply personal. This isn’t surface-level advice or “just pray more”—it’s real healing work that helps you experience lasting change. I offer private pay sessions for women who are ready to move beyond survival mode in relationships and step into clarity, peace, and emotional stability. If you’re ready to feel secure, grounded, and aligned in your relationships, I’d be honored to work with you.

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.
