Great to meet you!

Hello I am Ashaunti Edwards. I have been counseling for 10 years. I have worked with military families as I am a veteran, couples, individuals. I received my Bachelors degree in Addictions Counseling from Southern University of New Orleans. I received my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University.

I enjoy helping my clients find their voice and allowing them to feel heard. I look forward to working with you to narrative your own healthy story for your life.

My approach to therapy

My modality is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Relational. The populations and/or clients/couples I enjoy working with are dealing with Depression, Infidelity, LGBTQIA issues, Anxiety, Pre-Marital issues, andMartial issues, Substance Use issues.

I support those navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress management challenges, including panic disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and sleep disorders. I work with individuals experiencing grief and bereavement, end of life issues, infertility, chronic conditions such as diabetes, and other health-related disabilities that impact emotional well-being. My practice also supports clients living with bipolar disorder (also known as manic depressive illness), attention deficit disorder (ADD/ADHD), eating disorders, alcohol and substance abuse concerns, anger management and impulse control difficulties, and complex family or relationship issues.

I provide affirming care around identity development, cultural and ethnic issues, women’s issues, men’s issues, maternal mental health including prepartum and postpartum transitions, and LGBTQ+ concerns, including support for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender individuals. Whether you are navigating major life transitions, managing chronic stress, or working through long-standing patterns, therapy can be a space to build insight, strengthen coping skills, and move toward greater stability and self-understanding.

What you can expect from me

The environment I love to work from is one that is a safe, non-biased, and non-judgmental space. I love for my clients to feel relaxed as if they are speaking to a trusted friend. Let's explore and overcome together.
