Self-Harming Therapists in 30028

Thank you for taking the time to explore my approach to therapy. I have over 5 years of experience working with people to heal trauma. Traumatic events could include any experience a person perceived as threatening. My therapeutic modality is using a combination of Somatic Experiencing (SE) and Internal Relationship Focusing (IRF). I believe each client's body has the wisdom to guide us, client and therapist, through the resolution of trauma symptoms. I love to work with people who have spent considerable time in talk therapy and are now looking for alternative approaches.

Now taking new clients! I believe in taking a holistic and person-centered approach to therapy. Each person's experiences and challenges are unique, and I tailor treatment plans to meet the specific needs of clients. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Somatic therapy, and Breathwork, I help clients develop coping strategies, gain insight into their thoughts and emotions, and make positive changes in their lives. I specialized in ages 12 and up with Eating disorders, PTDS, Trauma, ADHD, LGBTQ+ issues, anxiety, depression and Narcissistic abuse recovery.

Supporting and encouraging the broken hearted through grace, understanding, and love. Transparent connection and hope can heal, restore and revitalize what you are destined to be. Understanding how to overcome obstacles and release burdens can bridge the gap towards true healing.

If you or your loved one are struggling with anxiety, depression, anger, and/or grief, it may be time to seek support from a licensed counselor. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore feelings and experiences while promoting personal growth. Since I am extensively trained and experienced in play therapy, I am most known for working with children and teens. However, I do provide counseling for all ages.

You have taken the first major step of getting healthier by acknowledging there is a concern and you are reaching out. My goal is to provide you a safe and comfortable environment to begin this journey. Change is possible. If you have experienced trauma, I can help you in the healing process. If you need someone to guide you through a difficult situation, I am here. I have been practicing in Mental Health since the 80's and many people have crossed my path. I love what I do and look forward to being there for you during this difficult time.

I create a friendly, non-judgmental, safe environment for my clients that empower them to succeed in making real changes in their lives. I believe that each person has a unique self that must respected, recognized and understood. I provide support by working with you towards improving your coping skills so that you could make positive changes, improve relationships, change negative patterns and live life to the fullest.

It is a big challenge to be vulnerable and disclose your innermost fears, thoughts, feelings and struggles to someone. By beginning to look for a therapist, you have taken the first step in overcoming this challenge. I commend you for taking this first step! I strive to create a safe space in which you are able to share and explore your thoughts and feelings without any judgment. I believe that the therapeutic rapport between a therapist and client is critical. Therefore, I value the bond and trust we create together in therapy. I hope to help you work through your life’s struggles and dilemmas in a safe and supportive environment.

I treat a variety of issues such as PTSD, ADHD, ODD, OCD, eating disorders, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideations, self-esteem issues, substance use, trauma, and behavioral issues. I strive to help children/teens becoming caring, loving, functional adults with a positive self-image and healthy emotional expression. In my work with adolescents, I help them to achieve life goals, build self-esteem, and healthy peer relationships. For adults with substance use I work with the client to find a path to sobriety by treating the underlying cause, using their inner strengths to support them.

Can’t focus? Your palms are sweaty or you’re losing your nerve. You didn’t accomplish your 2022 goals, you didn’t lose weight and you didn’t land that dream job. Feelings of depression or anxiety are overtaking you and you just don’t know what to do. There are many ways to cope with these stressors in life and I, Ms. Ashley, is the person who can help you with your struggles. I have a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy.

I believe there is power in connection and freedom in processing our hurt. Having someone sit with you as you untangle your thoughts, experiences, beliefs, and feelings can be so healing. My personal story of childhood trauma and addiction led me to pursue professional counseling for myself personally and eventually as a career. I work with people who are struggling to find steadiness in their lives. Wherever you are in life, I would love to meet with you exactly there: in the chaos, the calm, and anywhere in between. I would love to join with you in understanding where you've been, where you are now, and where you’d like to be.

I believe my training and experience has prepared me for working with individuals and families. I have specializations in older children, adolescents and adults dealing with having feelings of hopelessness and helplessness, low self-esteem, loneliness and isolation, and excessive worry and anxiety. Including those with issues of self-harm,impulsivity, experiences w/bullying, trauma, anger, and self-esteem. Also, those working through transitions such as life-stage transitions, relationship changes, boundary setting, grief and loss, divorce and blended families.
