I wholeheartedly believe in the resilience of the human spirit and that each of us are imbued with the desire to achieve, to connect and have peace. Change is usually associated with stress and we are not fond of it; we find comfort in our routine even when that routine is allowing us to feel overwhelmed, underappreciated and at its worst, neglected or abused. Change is what inspires and produces growth. Without growth, we whither and shrink away becoming someone whom we barely recognize. We are life forces and energy that need growth in order to realize our fullest potential

You are overwhelmed. You don't know how to keep up with the demands of life. You wonder, "how'd I get here?" You are sick and tired of being sick and tired. You want to laugh again and enjoy life again. You need a restart, a refocus but don't know where to begin. My clients are compassionate, kind, and motivated to help everyone else in their lives but have lost touch with themselves. They have spent so long saying yes to everyone else the idea of saying no and possibly disappointing others is crippling. You can work on finding yourself again. You don't have to do it alone.

Hello, my name is Ashley, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling and have trained in therapeutic techniques like EMDR therapy. My twenty years of experience include a clinical setting at an inpatient psychiatric hospital, a university counseling center, and a private practice. I have worked with clients impacted by depression, anxiety, trauma-related issues, and relationship challenges affecting their home and work life. I believe growth starts by looking closely at family of origin dynamics, the impact of early attachment, and personality development.

Taking care of yourself with a chronic illness is like a full time job. You need a calendar to manage the various appointments of doctors and specialists that you are fitting into the thousand other things you are trying to manage. You are overwhelmed and tired. You didn't sign up for this and want more for yourself. Does this sound like you? You are not alone, many of the clients I work with have felt this way. My clients are resilient, motivated, and persevering but living with their illness has weathered them and along the way they forgot these parts of themselves and need help being reminded.

I am passionate about helping those who have low sexual arousal disorder, erectile dysfunction disorder, or struggle with unwanted sexual behavior. I can provide Christian-focused counseling. I enjoy working with couples and helping them learn ways to communicate more effectively. For individuals, I provide eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR) as my main technique while including skills from other modalities. I am a LGBTQP+ ally. Sarcasm is my second language but doesn't have to be included in sessions.
Fun Facts About Me:
I enjoy playing video games, crocheting, and spending time with my 6 pets.

Therapy doesn't have to be hard or scary when you've found the right fit. Many of my clients are thoughtful, caring people who often appear to have it all together while privately struggling with anxiety, relationship challenges, communication difficulties, intimacy concerns, life transitions, or the impact of past experiences. Some feel disconnected from themselves or stuck in patterns they can't seem to change. Together, we'll create a safe, compassionate space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported as you move toward greater connection, confidence, and fulfillment. I would be honored to be part of that journey.

In 2011, I decided to start studying to become a therapist after working as a classroom educator for 16 years, because I saw the failing of the educational system and the struggles of the family system. I started working as a therapist in 2016, and today, we all face a variety of emotional issues that are difficult for to express, name, and discuss. Many people feel as if no one is listening or will listen to them, especially adults on the Autism Spectrum who already struggle with communication. I want to help empower all people on the Autism Spectrum and their support systems.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
