My name is Ashlyn Cherry, LCSW, and I have been a licensed therapist since 2005 in California. I use an integrative approach pulling from multiple evidence-based therapies. I specialize in a broad range of challenges including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, trauma, addiction, OCD, grief, adoption, and relationship concerns. I also have experience working with individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community.
I tailor treatment to the client's specific and unique needs, working toward goals set by the client. Modalities utilized include DBT (dialectical behavior therapy), CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), ERP (exposure and response prevention), IFS (internal family systems), EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), psychodynamic, trauma-informed, somatic, and narrative.
I provide a non-judgmental safe space where clients can feel seen, heard, and supported. My communication style is warm, caring, and personable. Goal setting is an integral part of the therapeutic process. I work collaboratively with clients to help them identify what they want to accomplish in therapy, and we'll check in from time to time to track the progress together.
