Hi! I'm Ashton and I'm glad you found me. I specialize in helping couples and individuals who are finding that their relationships are a big stressor in their life. Many of the clients I see are seeking counseling to improve communication skills and increase enjoyment and connectedness in their relationships. Clients who work with me often need help working through relationship betrayals and hurts that inevitably happen in relationships, but that can leave you feeling stuck. I use therapeutic modalities that help couples and individuals move past relationship patterns that no longer serve them into more stable ways of functioning.

Life can be a lot. Maybe you feel anxious, burned out, disconnected, or tired of holding everything together while pretending you are fine. Maybe you keep finding yourself in the same relationship dynamics, emotional spirals, or old patterns and wonder, “Why do I keep doing this?”
You may also be navigating trauma, grief, ADHD, depression, postpartum changes, divorce, family conflict, or relationship stress. My approach is warm, honest, collaborative, and trauma-informed. Therapy is not about becoming someone else; it is about understanding yourself more deeply and creating a life that feels more honest, connected, and meaningful.
