Hello! My name is Ashley and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Drug and Alcohol Counselor. I believe that life is filled with choices and the reason why we choose to do what we do, matters. When we are able to find and understand the reason why, we are then able to work on making changes, identifying healthy versus unhealthy coping, and making positive steps forward. Together we will work with your goals, your passion, and what motivates you, to get you where you want to be mentally, physically and emotionally.

As a therapist, my primary goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I provide a compassionate and non-judgmental space where individuals feel heard and understood. Through empathetic listening, evidenced-based techniques, and collaborative goal-setting, I assist clients in gaining insights, developing self-awareness, and building effective coping strategies. Together, we work towards overcoming challenges, promoting personal growth, and ultimately, achieving greater well-being and fulfillment in their lives.

With 8 years of experience working directly with adults and adolescents, I have strengthened my ability to connect with different personalities and perspectives to provide each client with compassion and understanding.

Twenty-five years into it, I still love being a counselor and psychotherapist. It is an honor and a privilege to be involved in the personal struggle and transformation of each client, couple, and family I see.

Most often my clients present problems in living rather than "mental illness" per se and they appreciate my attention to their strengths, resources, and spiritual concerns.
