As a licensed therapist in Michigan and Ohio, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My professional approach centers on compassionate, holistic care across a wide range of life challenges. I have extensive experience helping clients address depression, relationship dynamics, trauma, addiction recovery, and self-esteem concerns.
My therapeutic practice focuses on empowering individuals to develop deeper self-understanding and resilience. I work collaboratively with clients experiencing social anxiety, workplace stress, life transitions, and interpersonal difficulties. My expertise spans diverse areas including women's issues, young adult challenges, addiction recovery, and healing from traumatic experiences.
I believe in creating a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, develop healthy coping strategies, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. My goal is to help you understand your unique strengths and navigate life's complexities with greater confidence and clarity.

First time ever trying therapy, and Ashley has made me feel comfortable to be open and discuss things from the very beginning. Would definitely recommend
