Great to meet you!

Hi, I am Dr. G, but you can also call me Asha. I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker, Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, holistic birth doula, and proud military veteran with a Doctor of Social Work from the University of Kentucky. I specialize in individual therapy, perinatal mental health, substance use counseling, and integrated behavioral health. I have had the privilege of supporting children, adolescents, and adults through challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, grief, and parenting struggles. I am someone who understands what it means to carry heavy things while still showing up for yourself and your family.

My approach to therapy

I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can show up authentically, whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, hopeful, or uncertain. My therapeutic style is grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Strength-Based Care, Trauma-Informed, and Person-Centered approaches. I use these tools to help clients build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and break unhelpful cycles.

What you can expect from me

In our sessions, we move at your pace, sometimes that means breaking generational cycles, other times it means setting healthier boundaries or simply finding peace in the storm. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling seen, supported, and empowered. Therapy, for me, is not about “fixing” you. It is about reclaiming your voice, your strength, and your power one step at a time. If you are ready to begin, know that you do not have to carry it all on your own. I would be honored to walk with you on your healing journey.
