Dr. Ashley Thomas, LCMHC
About me
Hello, I am a fully licensed counselor in North Carolina. I have experience with individuals that are school-aged (K-12), young adults, and adults. I have been in the field of mental health for 9 years and 1 year within a residential substance use and mental health residential program. I completed my undergraduate degree at North Carolina A&T State University and my graduate degrees in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and PhD in Developmental Psychology from Capella University. My treatment approach is to work with my clients on what they would like to achieve and assist them with making their personal goals but when they need a gentle nudge/reminder I am there for those needs as well as support. I see the best in my clients and provide them with the necessary tools to be able to see the best within themselves while acknowledging their efforts, big or small!
