Great to meet you!

Hello, I’m Ashley! My passion is to support people and meet them where they are on their journey. I've worked at a school as a Social Worker and have history in private practice. It’s important to me to work with clients and families as a team, when possible, so that they feel comfortable not only asking for support, but also advocating for themselves.

I understand how intimidating it can be to ask for help. I encourage you to take the first step toward strengthening your overall wellbeing. I look forward to working together!

My approach to therapy

In my work with children, I enjoy using games, fidgets, and any specific interests to help children feel more comfortable. Although I have primarily worked with children, I look forward to utilizing my skill set to work with young adults as well as I have experience working with a diverse population in a variety of settings. I am familiar with using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), and utilize a Humanistic & Strengths-Based Approach while working with clients and families. I have experience helping clients with a variety of stressors, including disabilities, trauma, depression and anxiety, the foster care system, domestic violence, anger management, and more.

What you can expect from me

During the first session, we will be getting to know each other, going over select paperwork and information, and establishing your therapy goals.
