My goal is to help individuals and families see optimism and hope by providing ways to conquer hard times and cope with problems and hardships in healthy ways.

When I decided to start therapy again after a miscarriage I was struggling through, I knew I wanted someone closer to my age to understand me better, and Ashley was just what I was looking for. She is very supportive and helpful in allowing me to discover myself and work through my fears and anxieties without it feeling too medical. She’s engaging in a way that I really need and allows therapy to truly be therapeutic for me, as she understands my point of view more than any other therapist I’ve tried.

My parents once asked me how I would describe my view of life in one sentence, and I replied that my philosophy was "I don't know." As a therapist for more than two decades, "I don't know" has now expanded into words I often use with clients I have the privilege to work with: "I don't know exactly what you have experienced, but I want to know.
