Ashley has known since childhood that she wanted to be both a therapist and an educator. Growing up in a family and community that truly saw, heard, validated, and accepted people with medical and other exceptional needs shaped her values and vision for the future. Later, during a time of medical need and personal transition, Ashley experienced firsthand the life-changing power of therapy and committed herself to making her childhood dream a reality.

 

Today, Ashley brings a person-first, strengths-based, and person-in-environment approach to every client she serves. She provides individualized, holistic, and evidence-based care designed to support each person’s mental wellness.

 

Ashley works with individuals across the lifespan, specializing in supporting those who are:

    •    Neurodivergent

    •    Facing medical challenges

    •    Seeking healing after trauma

    •    Navigating life transitions, grief, or loss

    •    Exploring or reconnecting with spiritual care

 

Her goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to move toward their own definition of wellness.
