Ashley primarily works with young adults and middle-aged people through a relational framework. She has advanced training in the treatment of ADHD, Anxiety and Mood Disorders as well as relationship and communication issues. She pulls from psychoanalytic and Parts-Work approaches such at Internal Family Systems (IFS) as well as Gestalt therapy.
Ashley appreciates the impact that childhood and family dynamics have had on the development of presenting problems. She helps her clients gain greater insight, acceptance and then forgiveness for the people and situations that have hurt them. She collaborates with clients to identify relational and behavioral patterns that are pivotal in creating lasting change.
In the beginning of treatment, trust building is of the utmost importance, assessment is prioritized, and goal setting is implemented. Throughout the course of treatment, clients utilize the therapy space by delving deeper within themselves to get to the root of the issues they’ve been experiencing. By doing so, healthier and more adaptive approaches to life become apparent.
