I am experienced working with elementary aged children, adolescents, and young adults, in both an individual and family setting.
Mental health struggles, whether intense or mild, can really make everyday life difficult. Sometimes these struggles affect us personally and other times they affect the people around us, making us collateral damage. Attending therapy can help us learn skills to manage such struggles. For example, processing is a skill that allows us to understand our thoughts, understand our feelings, accept certain aspects of our lives and situations, and work through the struggle to move on. Learning to process and work through our struggles can make a huge difference in how we handle stress and daily life situations.

Much of my career has been spent working with children and provides unique insight into exploring Family of Origin dynamics.
I work with adolescents and adults around areas of anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. Through the therapeutic relationship, as well as examining interpersonal relationships and family dynamics, we can better understand painful and difficult experiences. We work to identify motivations, reactions, patterns, and automatic assumptions. This understanding helps gently guide the healing process and empowers the individual to approach their own behaviors with curiosity rather than shame. I have a special interest in working with adolescent girls around issues of self-esteem, anxiety and identity.

Someone once asked me, "Ashley, what is the number one thing that brings people to counseling?" I laughed and answered, "PEOPLE. People bring people to therapy!" We've all heard that adage: "People go to therapy for the people in their life that WON’T go to therapy”, and it's funny because it's absolutely true! As a professional counselor, I have never met someone who didn't have a story. Everyone has PEOPLE! Everyone has family struggles and relationship issues. Everyone has trouble processing emotions when they feel overwhelmed. Everyone needs someone to confide in and feel safe with, and that's what therapy can be for you.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
