Great to meet you!

Hello, My name is Ashley, and I have worked in the mental health field for seven years. During this time I have worked with children, teens, and adults in individual settings as well as group settings. I attended the University of Pittsburgh where I received my Bachelor's of Science degree in Psychology in 2013. I also received my Master's of Social Work at the University of Pittsburgh in 2017.

My approach to therapy

I am very warm and empathic. I often help clients to set goals for themselves, as well as increase their self-esteem. I like to use mindful exercises to help people find calm, and decrease their anxiety.

What you can expect from me

I frequently work with clients on setting goals to decrease anxiety, decrease angry outbursts, and increase effective communication. After working with me clients have a healthier view of themselves. Clients also learn valuable coping skills and how to communicate their feelings, thoughts, and needs assertively by the end of their time with me.
