I’m Ashton (he/him/his), a queer, transmasculine social worker and harm reduction advocate. During our sessions, my clients can expect a compassionate atmosphere that encourages creativity and growth. Clients of all gender identities can safely explore their feelings without fear of invalidation or gatekeeping. I highlight my clients' strengths in the face of adversity, acknowledging the role that alcohol and substance use plays in managing stress. Together, my clients and I generate unique strategies to deal with the ebbs and flows of everyday life.

Have you been experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, or just struggling to cope with life's stressors? Have you been going through life changes that feel unmanageable? In today's world, there is no shortage of pressure, worry, or comparison. We too often forget to take time to attend to our own needs and get to know and appreciate ourselves. Making space to heal and grow is my number one goal for any clients I work with, as well as making a safe and nonjudgmental space to speak your mind freely. I individually tailor my approach based on your needs and personal comfort level!
