About Me

Hi, I’m Ashley—a Licensed Professional Therapist (LPC) and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADCIII). I believe therapy can bring awareness to an individual's strengths, challenge them to grow and help them live a more fulfilled life. I provide a theoretical integration approach with an existential view. My focus is grounded in person-centered counseling and bringing the individuals to their present self. I approach individuals from a holistic view, treating them whole with mind, body and spirituality. I integrate interventions that include but not limited to Motivational Interviewing (MI), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness practices. I encourage exploring the meaning and value of living a life as their authentic self.  It's my focus to invite the individual to explore their self-awareness, thoughts, behaviors, feelings at the pace they are comfortable with, providing a safe place without judgement.


I work with children, teens, and adults, and I have experience supporting clients dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, low self-worth, grief, substance use, and trauma. My style is collaborative—I aim to create a space that feels safe, affirming, and grounded in genuine human connection using trauma-informed care.


How I Work

I believe there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to healing. I tailor therapy to your unique needs, drawing from a variety of evidence-based and trauma-informed modalities, including:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

  • Person Centered Therapy

  • Trauma-Informed Care

  • Motivational Interviewing

  • Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS)

  • Seeking Safety

Whether we’re exploring difficult emotions, unpacking old patterns, or working toward goals that matter to you, we’ll move at a pace that feels right—together.


Clinical Orientation

I believe therapy is a powerful tool for helping individuals recognize their strengths, overcome challenges, and create more fulfilling lives. My approach integrates multiple therapeutic perspectives with an existential foundation, emphasizing person-centered counseling and guiding clients toward greater connection with their present selves. I work from a holistic lens—mind, body, and spirit—to support each person as a whole.


Who I Work With

I currently work with individuals ages 5 and up and welcome people of all identities, backgrounds, and lived experiences. Whether you’re new to therapy or returning after time away, I’d be honored to support you. I am currently working with individuals, but I have incorporated couples and family therapy into our sessions.

I offer in-person and virtual therapy sessions based out of our Beaverton office. My schedule is Monday through Friday.

A Bit About Me

Outside the therapy space, you can often find me spending time with my family exploring new restaurants, discovering playgrounds with my daughter, traveling, and camping. I value balance, adventure, and meaningful connections, and I strive to bring those same values into the way I support clients in their growth.
