Great to meet you!

Thank you for choosing to make yourself a priority! The decision to seek help is a big leap, but I’m so glad you’re here. Welcome! I’m Ashley Virnan, LCSW, C-DBT. I treat young adults, adults, seniors and couples who are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship struggles.

My approach to therapy

My approach blends person-centered therapy with cognitive and calming strategies, helping you actively engage in your healing process. I also focus on providing practical skills to manage intense emotions, strengthen relationships, and change negative thought patterns. Together, we’ll create a customized set of tools to help you navigate life’s challenges.

What you can expect from me

In therapy with me, clients can expect to gain a clearer understanding of themselves and practical tools to navigate life’s challenges. Together, we’ll uncover the root causes of your struggles, and I’ll guide you in shifting unhelpful patterns, regulating emotions, and improving communication. You’ll also develop coping skills that can be applied right away to enhance your daily life. My goal is for you to leave feeling empowered, with a personalized set of tools to continue using long after our sessions.
