Guided by humanistic principles, my therapeutic approach draws from person-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy.
My therapeutic work focuses on individuals and couples exploring sex, intimacy, sexuality, and relationship matters. I understand the vulnerability involved in sharing these personal aspects of life, so I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and encouraging space through a strong therapeutic relationship built on authenticity, compassion, and shared laughter. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, sex-positive, and provide a trauma-informed and strengths-based approach.

My approach is person-centered, warm, and considerate.
You may be stuck. Confused. Literally at a standstill in your life right now, and you don't know which way to go. Maybe you've confided in family, friends, your partner, and no one could give you actual advice and insight that will lead you in the right direction. I get it. I understand not knowing which way to turn and feeling inadequate and like no one can give you the answers you seek. Maybe you just made a wrong turn and need help getting back on track. Let me let you in on a little secret: The answer lies in you. Yes, YOU. You are capable of more than you realize, and you will soon find out.

I utilizes a variety of evidence-based therapies including the Person Centered approach to foster the trust building process and increase client autonomy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), liberation psychology, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
Navigating life's set backs, challenges, and adversities can absolutely take a toll on our wellbeing and ability to function, which is why it is important to know that you do not have to work through these concerns alone. I believe in the power of healing through promoting self-awareness, autonomy and empowerment, and also in people's strength to move towards change. Though suffering is a part of life, something that all humans share, working to manifest helpful and sustainable coping mechanisms, and skills that will work to serve you long term makes a difference in the quality of life a person experiences.

I use psychodynamic and person-centered approaches to work with adults, teens, couples, families, and groups.
Do life’s challenges feel all-consuming? Or maybe how you've been coping just isn’t working anymore? I get it. Anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, and transition can feel overwhelming or impossible to navigate. I approach the therapeutic relationship as a fellow human, showing up with warmth, affirmation, and support. I fully believe that YOU are the expert in your own life, and I aim to uplift and celebrate your unique strengths while accounting for the identities and systems that impact your world. We will work in collaboration to establish openness and safety as you build towards greater healing.

Ashley’s hope as a therapist is to support people with building a foundation to live a life that aligns with their values. Your experiences, environments, and relationships all shape who you are, but due to trauma and unhealthy connection you may experience distress and need support to ultimately move from surviving to thriving. Ashley approaches therapy as a collaborative relationship and prioritizes safety, empathy, and authenticity throughout the process. She values strength based, person centered treatment, and in your work together you will focus on what’s important to you while also challenge areas that are counterproductive.

My multicultural experience working with diverse populations tailor my clinical approach from an integrative, person-centered, and trauma-informed lens.
It is okay to feel chaotic or stuck in oneself, relationships, or family systems. Therapy with me is collaborative; nurturing a space that feels brave, nonjudgmental, and warm for each of you. My clinical belief is that in therapy, we may go through emotional challenges, which may come with pain and sorrow, alongside realization and compassion. To experience the healing we seek, we want to make room for emotions, thoughts, and experiences that are uncomfortable and hurtful. I know it takes a lot of courage to do so, and I would love to go on this journey with you.

My foundational practice is rooted in person-centered therapy while understanding the importance of utilizing a tailored range of evidence-based practices.
I recognize and understand that anxiety, depression, trauma, and the compounding effects of those experiences can cause a sense of helplessness. Through my own human experience as well as serving in this setting. I recognize issues of ambiguity and recovery from problems that involve the mind, emotions, and spirit are long and arduous. The important piece is to keep these things in front of us as we relearn healthy skills to engage fully with life. We also must hold on to the understanding that we are solely responsible for our overall well-being.
