Great to meet you!

Ashley Nelson is a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. She has experience working with adolescent to middle-aged adults and specializes in helping individuals who are hurting from past and current relationships, depression, anxiety, fear, low self-esteem, phase of life changes, and substance use issues.

My approach to therapy

Ashley offers a client centered approach, delivering individualized therapeutic treatment to meet the needs of each client. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is her identified theoretical approach; however, services are tailored to complement each individual. With the belief that there is a need for self-acceptance, she strives to provide a safe place in therapy for clients to explore their authentic self.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to be heard, seen, and understood. Ashley works collaboratively with clients to establish goals and identify desired outcomes. Lastly, clients can expect frequent check-ins to assess progress toward goals, develop new goals, and identify and overcome stuck points.
