More about Ashley
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through a wide range of emotional and relational challenges. I work with clients navigating depression, anxiety, stress, and trauma, as well as concerns around self-esteem, life transitions, and attachment. My focus areas include social anxiety, panic disorder, mood disorders, self-harm, and posttraumatic stress, along with relationship dynamics like communication difficulties, codependency, and family-of-origin issues.
I'm particularly passionate about helping young adults work through isolation, loneliness, guilt, and shame as they build self-love and resilience. I also support clients facing workplace challenges, seasonal affective patterns, and the complex emotions that arise from sexual assault and abuse.
My approach is grounded in empathy and collaboration. I believe in meeting you where you are and working together to identify what matters most to you. I'm honored to walk alongside you as you navigate your healing journey and discover your own strength and capacity for growth.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
