About me

I am a Colorado based licensed counselor with over 7 years of experience working as an individual counselor to at-risk youth, older teens and adults . I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, bi-polar disorder, disruptive behaviors, mood disorders, LGBTQIA+ related issues and adjustment to life circumstances. I also have helped many people who have experienced emotional abuse, physical abuse and sexual abuse in addition to trauma related issues.

My counseling style is warm and client focused through a talk therapy approach. I believe everyone deserves to be treated with respect and compassion. My approach to therapy combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused therapy. I will tailor our time together in therapy and treatment planning to meet your needs, after all, who knows you better than you?!

I applaud the courage it took to seek out help for a better fulfilled and happier life and I look forward to being a part of the journey with you!

So caring, great listener and tells me what she hears, offers solutions, brings me back to reality. My anger issues are so much better, under control, thanks to her. Couldn't ask for more!

She's empathetic, but still able to share hard truths. She's able to toe the line between needed confidant and brutally honest critic.

I feel like Ashley knows my heart so strongly. As someone who is very versed in therapy, I’ve never connected quite the way I have with her. I appreciate her insight and feel like I’ve so vastly progressed in our time together.
