Ashanti Marshall, LPCC — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Ashanti!

I help adults navigate anxiety, stress, and self-doubt with compassion, calm, and genuine support. My approach to therapy is person-centered, and I'm an advocate for my clients.

My focus

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in worry, or struggling to feel confident in yourself, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out on your own. My goal is to create a space where you can breathe a little easier, feel safe to be yourself, and begin to trust that real change is possible.

My approach

My approach to therapy is person-centered and includes other modalities such as CBT, strengths-based, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and solution-focused.

My communication style

I enjoy having my client's voice being heard front and center during all sessions. It feels as though you are speaking with a trusted and safe friend who wants to see you win and overcome your concerns.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always enjoyed helping others and was influenced by my own mentors, who have helped me in my life to pursue this career path. Knowing that I'm making an impact and a difference in someone else's life is what drives me to be a therapist.

My goals for you

I encouraged clients to establish their goals during initial intake, and during the course of treatment, we discuss progress with the goals. I also provide recommendations and homework, which is helpful in helping clients reach their goals.

Our first session

The first session and all sessions are all about you. I want to get to know my clients and establish rapport by finding out their concerns as well as their favorite hobbies.
