Ashley is passionate about working with young adults, women and families. Her counseling background includes extensive work with women who have experienced trauma (domestic violence, sexual assault, child sexual abuse), group counseling for trauma/grief, and years of working specifically with young adults. She enjoys helping client address anxiety, depression, trauma, as well as the life changes that come with transitioning into college, through college, and into the professional world. Ashley works with each client to develop goals, assess coping history, and overcome obstacles for change. Her passion for helping others comes from her belief that healing can take place and joy is possible!
