You feel different than others and there’s so much going on inside. Perhaps your thoughts and emotions are just too much. The people, places and activities that may have been fulfilling and safe in the past, are now what you would prefer to avoid. Others appear happy, but that same happiness feels beyond your reach. Maybe you recognize the need for some change, but enacting change seems impossible. Are you ready for your mind and body to be at peace in this chaotic world and to find your true self again? It is possible to access the wonder and creative energy of youth and to have a new understanding of your life.

Addiction/Substance Use Disorders are family illnesses that create unhealthy patterns in all types of relationships. Recovery is a journey from a seemingly hopeless state of mind and body to contentment and serenity! The journey is Physical, Mental/Emotional and Spiritual. It does take time and a willingness to walk through some discomfort in order to gather tools, practice using them and gain confidence. I wish to serve those who desire to begin that journey, or have already been walking the journey but may need some assistance to work through some core issues that keep creating chaos in you or a loved one's life.

In therapy with me you'll learn the language of your nervous system to become your own best medicine & healer. Life is too short to be anyone but yourself, and if you're not experiencing your life the way you'd like to… we can change that. As an anxiety specialist, I can tell you that you don't have to feel so stuck & unfulfilled. Happy lives & relationships aren't just what happen to other people. You know that wise inner voice of yours? The one quietly telling you that things don't have to be this way? That's a voice that we'll work to amplify in our work together with high compassion, low B.S.

I work with clients struggling with recovery from drugs and or alcohol. I see clients that have loved ones that have lost control over their use. Some clients are sober, but stuck in other areas and seek consultation for 2nd and 3rd stage recovery. My practice treats common issues related to substance-use disorder, including: gambling disorder, anxiety, cognitive distortions, shame, low self-esteem, guilt, fear and anger. Individuals, couples and families are all welcome. High-school, and college students that need counseling and case management to keep up or re-engage academics or sports will be right at home in my space.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative effort – you know yourself better than anyone. We will work together to identify where you would most like support and which therapeutic strategies work best for you. I use evidence-based modalities such as cognitive behavioral theory and mindfulness, which can give you the tools you need to make the changes that you want in your life. I utilize a strengths-based and trauma-informed approach to therapy in hopes of creating a warm, welcoming space where each person feels comfortable being their authentic self.

Do you feel like no one wants you to talk about your grief? Like they want you to “get over it” or “look on the brightside”? Or maybe you need support but don’t feel like you can burden others with the request? When others don’t know how to talk about or handle our grief, it can be isolating and lonely. The combination of emotions we feel at these times can be downright confusing. I want you to know this feeling won’t last forever. Whether you’re new to grief or feel stuck in it, whether you have lost a loved one or are grieving the loss of an anticipated life, I want to help you on your journey back to you.

Honest self-reflection is the answer to so many of our problems. At many points throughout our lives, we learn to ease life’s burdens by shutting down, acting out, or running away in attempts to find relief. Even our most destructive coping strategies were often the best answers we could find at the time to manage our anxieties, our desires, and our pain. When we allow ourselves the opportunity to slow down and reflect on our lives, both past and present, we deepen our understanding and insight. And, as we explore our lives without moralizing and harshness, we develop genuine compassion and greater trust in ourselves.

I take a humanistic and nervous system-based approach to the therapeutic process, and believe that each client is inclined towards healing and growth. It is my job to act as a guide, helping clients clear the path toward uncovering their innate ability to heal and grow. Being human is not without its challenges and sometimes traumas. I believe improving connection with others, identifying unhelpful patterns, and addressing wounds is a critical step in thriving after these experiences.

A major thread in Ashley’s work has been care for families. Having worked in volunteer and professional capacities with children and families for more than 17 years and as a mother of three young children, Ashley has found herself with a deep care for helping people find their own healing to stop cycles of toxic stress. When children or teens feel out of control or parents feel overwhelmed, working through issues that require learning how to emotionally regulate (i.e. trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, ADD, or OCD) can lead to healing that improves one’s ability to securely connect in relationships.

There's nothing more gratifying to me than witnessing people courageously say the things they thought they couldn't say, do the things they thought they couldn't do, and move through feelings they thought would surely take them under. All of which leads to the life experience they have been yearning for. Shame, addiction, anxiety, trauma, grief, disordered eating, depression, etc. are all factors that impact a person's ability to move forward, and many who struggle may even feel a sense of hopelessness after having tried countless methods to get "unstuck." With the right help and tools, life can and does get better.
