Negative, or traumatic, events can change a person’s perception of themselves or the world around them. Life changing events can impact a person in any phase of life. A person could feel overwhelmed trying to find a solution. It’s hard, or nearly impossible, to navigate these changes alone. Finding or asking for help could make a person feel vulnerable.

Therapy is a growth experience that can influence the way you view the world and yourself. As humans, we all experience times of discomfort and life transitions. Therapy is not only for those suffering from addiction or mental illness. It is also a way to gain skills, enhance your performance, and learn more about yourself. Barriers to becoming who you want to be can be explored in therapy and work to re-building life, relationships, and even your career.

My name is Ashley Bryant, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), and I am a passionate mental health professional dedicated to helping individuals step into a more empowered, balanced, and fulfilling version of themselves.

My ideal client is someone who is ready for new results. I love helping people create what is really important for their life, and I am committed to being someone who can push them to have it. The most successful couples I work with have struggled with infidelity, considered divorce, or lost the fireworks in their marriage. The most successful individuals I work with have struggled with anxiety, addiction, intimacy issues, death/loss, or finding a purpose. All of my clients who succeed are open to exploring new ideas and hungry for change. Our conversations are action-oriented and results driven. Most of our sessions are fun.
