Ashley Newman, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Ashley!

I help people navigating postpartum depression, anxiety, or psychosis, as well as depression, anxiety, self-harm, psychosis, and substance use challenges. My goal is to help you develop coping strategies, understand the psychology behind your experiences, and gain better traction on your life.

My focus

I work with families, parents, and adolescents struggling with mental health issues, as well as individuals impacted by trauma, violence, and substance cycles.

My approach

I offer a supportive approach focused on understanding your symptoms, processing feelings and thoughts, and building helpful coping strategies. My specialty is dual diagnosis—working with mental health and substance use together.

My communication style

I provide a safe and warm space where you can explore your needs, current feelings, history, and goals without judgment.

My journey to mental healthcare

My mission is to help people thrive despite the pressures of mental health and substance use challenges. I have worked in psychiatric hospitals, county jails, intensive outpatient programs, and traditional outpatient clinics.

My goals for you

Together, we will explore your needs, history, and goals. You have the power to stop fighting what is out of your control and harness your ability to control what is within your grasp.

Our first session

I understand that reaching out is incredibly anxiety-producing. In our first session, we will create a safe space to explore your current feelings, history, and what you hope to achieve.
