Ashley is a relationship-centered therapist, who also draws upon family systems theory in her work. Ashley believes that the therapeutic relationship must foster a sense of warmth, authenticity, and acceptance, enabling clients to bring their full selves to the work, creating deeper awareness and a more connected, lived experience. Ashley's varied life experience has taught her that integration is essential on our journey toward wholeness. In this way, she creates safe space for people to bring the many aspects of their own selves - social, emotional, spiritual, and sexual - to the therapy process.
Ashley’s extensive training in mindfulness practice enables her to hold each person’s story with compassion and to meet them with presence. She holds Masters’ degrees in Human Sexuality Education and Social Work from Widener University, as well as Jewish Studies from the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College, where her thesis focused on mindful parenting.
Ashley completed spiritual direction training, and is a mentor for the training program at the Institute for Jewish Spirituality. She also has a grief counseling certificate and volunteered extensively for the COVID Grief Network. Ashley enjoys reading, mindfulness practice, dancing, and being with friends and family.
