Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate

Hello, I’m Ashley. I provide psychotherapy services to adolescents and adults ages 18 and older at our clinic in Tacoma, WA. My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I strive to meet patients where they are emotionally and culturally, honoring their unique identities, values, and lived experiences. My therapy style is straightforward, direct, and empathetic, and I offer an engaging and active therapeutic experience that may include homework outside of sessions. I prioritize collaboration with patients to see real change, growth, and healing in their lives.

I specialize in treating trauma and PTSD, anxiety disorders, depression, family and relational dynamics, parenting and co-parenting challenges, codependency, boundary development, communication difficulties, coping skill development, mindfulness, resilience, and faith exploration.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, and reaching out is often the hardest first step. My role is to meet you where you are and offer honest support as you work toward meaningful change. I value authenticity, trust, and real conversations. You can show up as yourself without judgment. If you’re ready for the next step, I would be honored to work with you.
