Ashley is by far the best therapist I’ve ever had. When I came to her, I was navigating a series of major life events: the loss of my father, an unexpected pregnancy, a move across the country, and processing childhood trauma. She’s helped me every step of the way with deep compassion and understanding. I’m incredibly grateful for the therapy sessions I’ve had with her and so thankful to have met such an amazing therapist.

McCracken is truly wonderful! She makes me feel like I am her only client in regards to listening and remembering what we have talked about. She always has a way of keeping on track when I get sideways! She makes you feel safe and for me that is the most important! Thank you
