First, let me introduce myself. My name is Ashley Naginewicz, Ed.D, LMHC. I hold a doctoral degree in professional counseling and am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Massachusetts. I have been working in the field of counseling for 10 years. I have experience working with a broad range of mental health disorders and addictions. I understand that often, addiction disorders can be co-occurring with a mental health diagnosis. Throughout the years I have worked with a diverse client population with many different ages, genders, race, and cultures. I believe that counseling is an individualized treatment.
If you are reading this, it means that you are ready to take the journey in to counseling. This journey is one that is beneficial and does not only address things we identify as our counseling goals, but can also lead to an overall richer and fuller life. Everyone can benefit from the support and understanding the counseling provides.
I enjoy helping clients enter recovery from alcohol and substance use issues through motivational interviewing techniques and working on coping skills that address more than just issues with dependency. I also use the techniques of DBT and CBT that can be beneficial for clients overcoming anxiety disorders, depression, and coping with life's changes including job and relationship changes. I have taken specialty courses related to trauma and how to heal from traumatic experiences. I believe that the client is the center of the counseling journey where autonomy and respect is the main priority, thus, individualizing the treatment of each client. Collaboratively, we will work together through this process to reach the goals that you have determined.

Dr. Naginewicz has been amazing - I truly am lucky to have her as my therapist. She is the first therapist to really sit and listen, especially when I sometimes don't know if what I am saying makes sense, she listens so attentively and each week she will remember what I say and how I am feeling. She's so positive and I appreciate her so much

Getting matched with Dr. Naginewicz was the best thing that could’ve happened for me. She is so attentive, understanding, helpful, and she is a great listener. For someone who was so reluctant to try this out, I couldn’t have asked for a better therapist to make me feel open and so comfortable talking about everything. Highly recommend.

Dr. Naginewicz was a really great listener to what was going on in my life. She provided guidance and ultimately shared that I needed to take care of myself during this time as well as set boundaries. I have done both and are doing well. I would absolutely recommend her.

Dr. Naginewicz is extremely professional, caring and reliable, betterhelp is my first experience with online therapy, and therapy in general, and in the meetings & conversations we've had I feel Dr.Naginewicz understands and supports me fully. She is flexible with scheduling & if you miss appointments, very approachable. i was nervous to get counseling at first but matching with Dr. N was a breath of relief. I would surely recommend her to any of my friends or family looking for guidance.
