Are you or your teen feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or anxious about life, school, relationships, college/career, motivation, communication, and overall emotional health? Are you seeking help for your teen to build self-esteem, resilience, coping skills, and gain knowledge, to help them navigate their world which can be filled with so much uncertainty.

Seeking out a therapist can be one of the most challenging and rewarding decisions you can make. My goal is to provide a warm, compassionate, trauma informed, and nonjudgmental approach to treatment. I believe humor is an important part of the process! I have a special interest in working with folks experiencing anxiety, adjustment/transition issues, prenatal/postpartum concerns, perfectionism, family/relational issues (including history of relational trauma), body image concerns, and sport and performance issues. I work well with college students, athletes, early-career professionals, and pregnant folks/parents of young children.

I specialize in working with couples, adults, and college students. I also specialize in psychoeducational testing, including ADHD and Learning Disability evaluations. Getting an accurate diagnosis is often a very important step in treating or improving functioning for individuals who experience these difficulties.

Being a teenager or young adult can be challenging. Navigating body changes, social issues, school concerns, and thinking about life following school can be daunting for both the child and the parent. Anxiety and depression are prevalent among youth today. I focus on adolescents, teens, and young adults who need a space to freely talk through their thoughts and feelings with no judgment.

Psychotherapy is the opportunity to learn about yourself, and to make changes you haven't been able to make before. When we understand ourselves we can change how we relate to ourselves and others, we can work toward meaningful accomplishments that connect with our deepest values. Therapy can help you to become more effective, stronger, and more fulfilled, as you become the person you want to be. If you're looking for guidance through a challenging situation or you're ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

I offer insightful, supportive, and interactive therapy blended with resourceful, practical suggestions that can help you heal life's hurts, like yourself more, adjust to life's transitions, and develop improved communication skills and relationships.

Working the last three years in Mental Health and addiction, I have learned to motivate people to develop a plan to change their life. My experience is working with adolescents, young and older adults who approach struggles differently. Each person culture has sculptured their beliefs and how they face new challenges. By collaborating with individuals, the focus is to help them gain personal growth. Sometimes it may be difficult to share your struggles with a stranger. It is good to have someone to listen and provide support to guide us through the process.

Video on Website Link - not currently accepting new clients- I believe life should be a lot easier then it is. We all get pushed past our limits that challenge who we think we are. The pressure changes us into different people. How do we get past reacting to life and get on to living life intentionally? The answer is not easy, because there are many factors that fracture our attention, steal our resources, and prevent progress. My job is to help change these factors to set you up for success and aid in defining what success means for you.

Hi there! I’m Ashley Davis, a licensed marriage and family therapist (or LMFT) in the state of North Carolina. I’m originally from the Triangle, and I love being able to make a positive impact in the community I grew up in through my work with the clients I serve. Being an LMFT, I have a unique approach to therapy, in that I approach therapy first and foremost from a systemic perspective. This essentially means that I place a large amount of emphasis on how people’s relationships, environments, and backgrounds affect their overall mental wellness and explore these areas in depth with my clients.

Accepting New Clients - Life can be overwhelming, and trying to understand and process experiences can be difficult. Understanding your mental health and how to care for your well-being can be life-changing. Suffering from anxiety, depression, relational/familial conflict or trauma, or just looking for an outside perspective can all benefit from therapy. I do speak some Mandarin but require that clients also speak some English.
