Hello, and welcome. I’m really glad you’re here. Reaching out for help is a big step, and you don’t have to do this alone. My name is Ashley. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia and Mississippi. I have over 13 years of experience helping people in schools, clinics, and community programs. I work with people who may feel stuck, stressed, or hurt by past experiences. I understand how hard life can be, especially when challenges affect families over time. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and hopeful again. In our work together, we will talk about what’s going on in your life right now. We will look at your thoughts, feelings, and actions, and find better ways to cope and grow. I use simple, practical tools from proven approaches like Adlerian therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and brief, solution-focused strategies. Ready to get started? Reach out—I’m here for you.

I am a licensed therapist who has worked with clients for 16 years helping people understand, manage, cope with and overcome daily-life and life-span difficulties, struggles and challenges. I strongly believe that the suffering of people can be relieved through nonjudgmental, unconditional positive regard and support. I have witnessed many people experience relief from distress and improved quality of life by using skills they hadn’t acquired during upbringing or education. These skills are actually possessed by everyone, but have yet to be discovered and developed. I’ve been honored to witness this happen for people through counseling support and collaboration guided by the individual’s desires and hopes. Reaching out for assistance is a difficult first step to make and takes courage. You have taken this step by coming to BetterHelp for a client-counselor match, and I look forward to accompanying you on your journey.

As a healthcare professional, I have worked in many specialties; adult, child, family, ob/gyn, neurology, urgent care, emergent care, dermatology, med/surgery and mother and baby.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of GA. I have worked with veterans for several years as a crisis counselor. I started my career working with children/teens as a community counselor. I have a passion for helping one operate in their highest capacity in order to master the basic areas of life; work, family, social lives and purpose. I practice solution focused therapy on a regular basis. This means I am direct and "to the point" as it relates to identifying and working toward solving a situation. However, I will try other modalities if the situation requires another focus. I love helping people and believe help starts with getting one's mental state healthy 1st and that will trickle over to being healthy in all areas of life. I have the unique experience of not only being a teen parent; I had my 1st child at 15 and my 2nd child at 19; therefore, even though I am licensed; I have experienced hardships and life challenges at a very early age! Therefore, I can relate and identify to most people, regardless of their background or trials and tribulations. I am here to help you maximize life fulfillment by overcoming real and self imposed obstacles.
