Hi there, I'm Ashley!

I provide walk-and-talk therapy in nearby parks as well as virtual sessions. I believe movement, the outdoors, and talk therapy can help improve anyone's mental health.

My focus

I especially enjoy working with adults under the age of 50. I believe most clients have the answers within them, and by asking the right questions, carving out time for reflection, and reminding clients of their strengths, we can find a solution.

My approach

I'm solution-focused and like to offer practical strategies to use as well as psychoeducation to my clients.

My communication style

I'm curious and friendly.

My journey to mental healthcare

I graduated in 2011 with my MSW. I have experience working in case management, as a state hospital liaison, crisis counselor, and therapist.

My goals for you

I help clients identify and prioritize their goals and set milestones in order to measure progress and reevaluate, if needed.

Our first session

First sessions are a time for me to learn more about what brings you to therapy, what has worked or not worked in the past to overcome the problem you've identified, and your approach preferences.
