Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Ashley, and I’m really glad you’re here. I strive to create a space that feels warm, calm, safe, and supportive, where you can show up exactly as you are without fear of judgement. I believe each person’s story is unique, and I take the time to truly listen, understand, and meet you where you’re at. My goal is to help you feel seen, empowered, and equipped with tools that support your growth and healing at your own pace.

My approach to therapy

I like to take an integrative and personalized approach to therapy, tailoring each session to fit your unique needs, goals, and experiences. I draw from a variety of evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Play-Based, Emotion Focused, and more. I enjoy helping clients build emotional awareness and tools that facilitate deeper insight. My work often focuses on emotional regulation, anxiety, relationship dynamics, self-esteem, and life transitions, meeting you where you are while supporting meaningful and lasting growth.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, the focus is really on getting to know you and helping you feel comfortable, safe, and supported. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you in, any concerns or challenges you’ve been experiencing, and what you’re hoping to get out of therapy, at a pace that feels right for you. I may ask some questions to better understand your background, but there’s no pressure to share everything all at once. Together, we can begin identifying initial goals, while prioritizing building a strong, trusting connection as the foundation for our work.
