Great to meet you!

Welcome! My name is Ashlynn. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of NC. My work helps people with various mental and behavioral health concerns such as: depression, anxiety, co- occurring disorders, etc. to cope with their experiences and make changes to improve their health and wellbeing. I generally work with people on improving stress, improving interpersonal skills/relationships, increasing motivation for change, and increasing self- awareness. I believe in the importance and impact of intersectional identity (race/gender/class) and use a multicultural approaches to therapy.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach is rooted in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT is evidenced- based practices and intervention techniques for various emotional and behavioral concerns. I utilize other therapeutic approaches, including: Motivational Interviewing, Resiliency Training, Integrative therapy, and Psycho-education in a safe; supportive environment.

What you can expect from me

I would best describe my therapeutic approach as empathetic, yet honest. Building rapport and trust is important for the process. I want to make sure that therapy is a beneficial partnership and worthwhile experience. I hope to support and empower you on your journey towards your goals. Thanks for reading. Be Well!
