Hi I'm Ashley! I know first-hand how stressful college can be. When you add in ADHD, anxiety, depression, disordered eating, or a history of trauma; it can be even more difficult. If you are struggling with stress, adhd, anxiety, depression, disordered eating, body image issues, trauma, toxic shame, perfectionism, alcohol abuse, and/or relationship difficulties; I may be a good fit to work with you! I offer an environment that provides a trauma informed approach with insight-oriented treatment. I will help you dig deep into your younger years to see how they may be impacting you now, while assisting you in identifying coping skills that work best for you!

Do you struggle with anxiety, mood shifts, or relationship challenges that affect your day to day life and ability to function? Do you feel overwhelmed, frustrated, or lost by how you have been feeling and are unsure how to move forward and somehow feel better? Do you put your needs at the bottom of the list and live to please other people? Now more than ever people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and uncertain in how to manage their relationships, school, careers, and lives. Life doesn’t have to look like this for you anymore. I believe that it shouldn’t be so hard to live a happier life, and that positive change is possible!  At my practice I offer a customized approach to fit every client! I start by meeting you where you are at now and helping you form goals and a plan to move forward. I will be right alongside you during this journey, whether that is being with you in the hard moments or cheering you on from the sidelines. I provide a safe, relaxed, and comfortable environment to start this journey. I have extensive experience working alongside clients that are coming to therapy for the very first time, as well as clients who are revisiting therapy to seek further healing. I keep things real and often use humor when appropriate in session as well. I want you to feel like you are leaving sessions with a weight lifted off of you.  Helping people thrive and feel better is my passion. This might look like learning better coping strategies to reduce anxious symptoms, setting boundaries in your relationships, or helping you change a pattern of behavior that is keeping you stuck. This change is possible and has been proven through countless success stories. My goal is to help you feel better so you can live the life you’ve always dreamed of! Contact me today for a free consultation call and we’ll get started on your journey together!

My counseling style is warm and inviting. I believe in being completely non-judgmental, sensitive and compassionate. I want to start where you are wherever you are in your journey through different human experiences. My psychotherapy approach is a combination of cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing, interpersonal, solution focused and client centered. I enjoy working with individuals with traits and tendencies of attachment that manifests by way of questioning self-worth, feeling unworthy of love, fear that healthy relationships cannot exist, obsession with loss and difficulty moving forward, taking on others feelings and beliefs as your own, guilt/shame, inability to receive feedback without feelings of failure/rejection and experiencing confusion/seeking clarity around identity. In my down time, I love to relax and have a good time. For fun, I enjoy listening to music and singing, traveling, trying new restaurants and foods, reading, laughing and spending time with loved ones.

I get it. It you're going through a lot each day, feeling like you have to be perfect at everything you try and always needing to make sure everyone else is happy. This can leave you feeling totally worn out, like you're constantly running on empty, and still that nagging feeling of "never enough" just won't go away. Maybe you're carrying worries and stress around with you all the time, and perhaps some tough things from the past are making things even harder. Please know that I see how much you're dealing with, and I'm here to help you find a way through this. Together, we can gently work on these patterns so you can start feeling less pressured and more truly content in your life. I focus specifically on helping people who struggle with perfectionism, people-pleasing, and that "never enough" feeling, along with related stress and anxiety. I understand how these issues connect for you. Clients often choose me because they feel truly understood and see a clear path towards lasting relief, not just quick fixes. Imagine finding a calm and comfortable space in your own home for our sessions. It will feel like a private conversation in a calm and comfortable space. We'll gently explore those habits of trying to be perfect and always saying "yes," understanding where they came from and how they affect you now. I'll listen with a warm and open heart, creating a safe space for you to share without judgment, all from the comfort of your surroundings. Together, we'll learn to set healthy boundaries, be kinder to yourself, and truly believe in your worth, right from where you feel most at ease. You'll gain simple ways to handle stress and worries. As we connect, you'll hopefully feel that pressure to be perfect ease, find it easier to say "no," and feel more calm and present in your day, leading to more energy and peace within yourself. For our sessions, imagine a calm and comfortable space around your school or in your dorm where you can truly feel safe and open up. Building trust is really important here; I want you to feel completely yourself, knowing I'm listening with genuine understanding and without judgment. That said, don’t think that I’m only here to provide the non-judgmental listening, I will give healthy pushbacks and help challenge those unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Together, we'll explore the issues that have been holding you back, understanding their roots and their impact. As partners, we'll work on setting healthy boundaries, cultivating self-compassion, and recognizing your inherent worth, empowering you with practical tools to handle stress and worries as you move towards a life with less pressure, more genuine connection, and a deeper sense of your own "enoughness."

Hi there! We are an outpatient practice offering in-person and virtual appointments. We specialize in working with those navigating the tricky terrain of growing up—dealing with friendship shifts, school pressure, big emotions, and the journey of self-discovery. Many of the clients who find us describe themselves as high-performing yet often struggling with things such as: suspected or diagnosed ADHD, chronic anxiety, burnout, and who are seeking balance amidst life's demands. Their work often centers on identity exploration, navigating interpersonal relationships, building self-esteem, developing a more compassionate relationship with their bodies and food, and adapting to life transitions.

Feeling Overwhelmed by the News Cycle? Struggling with the stressors of balancing school, work and personal life? You're Not Alone — Let's Navigate It Together. In today’s world, the constant stream of political unrest, and distressing headlines can leave even the most resilient among us feeling anxious, hopeless, or emotionally exhausted. If you’re finding it hard to unplug, sleep, or focus — you're not overreacting. You're responding to real stress, and you don’t have to face it alone. As a licensed therapist, I specialize in helping individuals process the emotional toll of living through turbulent times. Together, we’ll explore how current events are impacting your mental health, build strategies to manage stress and anxiety, and create space for you to reconnect with what brings you meaning, purpose, and peace.

My approach is integrative and trauma-informed, drawing from psychodynamic therapy, humanistic therapy, and mindfulness. I have particular experience working with grief, identity exploration, chronic illness, spirituality, LGBTQ health, and women’s health. I also work with clients who feel disconnected from their purpose or who are navigating major shifts in their sense of self. Our work will begin with your story, and from there, we will collaboratively create a plan to address your goals. My aim is to help clients access their own wisdom, find relief from emotional distress, deepen self-awareness, and experience greater self-compassion. In addition to my work as a psychotherapist, I have worked as an interfaith hospital chaplain, supporting patients, families, and staff during moments of intense vulnerability and uncertainty. This experience informs my work, allowing me to hold space for life’s deepest questions and existential concerns. My approach to spirituality is non-prescriptive, honoring each person’s unique beliefs, values, and ways of making meaning.

I work with people from all kinds of backgrounds and experiences, and I get how overwhelming college life can feel. If you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or just feeling stuck, I’m here to help you untangle what’s going on and make sense of your emotions. I also speak Spanish and understand what it’s like to navigate life in a new country or culture. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest, feel supported, and start building the life you want—one step at a time.

I enjoy living in the corners and at the fringes of what stereotypical therapy might look like. It is important to me that those who are outcasts, quirky, different, neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, and the marginalized feel heard. When we work together, I want you to feel like you matter (because you do). If you like the utilization of tarot and oracle cards, we can incorporate that. If you need resources on affirming places to practice spirituality, we can look at those. If you want to talk about kink communities and how to get involved with them, we can find them. Whatever works for you works for me, and I want to help you figure that out.
