As a therapist, I'm direct and solution-centered. I want to help others who don't feel safe with their thought processes and show there's hope. Therapy can feel intimidating in the beginning. The key thing to remember: The more you let down your walls and become vulnerable to the process, the more change you'll see within yourself. Trust the process and continue to show up, even when it's hard. I love working with individuals and seeing how far they've come.

Get to know Ashley
My personal connection to OCD and mental health
I don't have OCD myself, but I've experienced intrusive thoughts and found myself stuck in spirals. Like many, I've navigated periods of anxiety and had to develop strategies to manage it effectively. These experiences have deepened my empathy and understanding of how overwhelming and isolating these struggles can feel.
How I create a safe, supportive environment in therapy
I take a flexible and collaborative approach, trying different strategies to see what resonates with you and supports your goals. I regularly check in and ask how you prefer to be supported, because I believe therapy should feel like a partnership. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and safe enough to show up as your full, authentic self.
What I want to help you see in yourself
I want to help you recognize that you have more strength and capability than you might give yourself credit for. Even when things feel overwhelming, you have the inner resources to face challenges and make progress. My goal is to help you uncover that strength and learn to trust yourself.
My message to you if you're struggling right now
It's possible. Even if it feels out of reach right now, change can happen—and it often starts with just a little bit of hope. ERP can be challenging sometimes, but it can also be incredibly empowering. You don't have to do it perfectly, and you don't have to do it alone.
