(SHE/HER/HERS), LMFT #103077, PMH-C
After earning a Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Fuller School of Psychology in 2014, Ashley trained in DIR Floortime play therapy with neurodiverse children, as well as psychodynamic, depth therapy.
Ashley is Perinatal Mental Health Certified (PMH-C) and specializes in matrescence (the process of becoming a mother), the difficulty of holding ambivalence within motherhood, and how this journey changes throughout a lifetime.
She offers individual therapy for expecting, new, and seasoned moms, creating a warm space to rediscover buried parts and integrate them into the new self arising.
Additionally, Ashley offers parent coaching in hopes of helping parents reflect on their child's emotional, physical, and sensory needs and discover ways to adjust parenting to fit their unique profile.
While Ashley utilizes theories (psychodynamic, family systems, and developmental psychology), her approach is relational, warm, a bit playful and, most importantly, unique to the person sitting in front of her, to the relationship being created.
