About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Nevada and Maine with over 10 years of experience working with individuals, families, children and couples. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, coping with grief and loss, life changes, parenting challenges and depression. I have also worked as a therapist in foster care and with families who have medically fragile children.

I approach every person and their area of concern as unique and provide help from a non-judgmental lens. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach utilizes ideas from cognitive-behavioral, narrative, person centered and humanistic theories. All of our dialogue and the treatment plan will be tailored to meet your specific and unique needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Ashley is a compassionate and professional therapist. She responds to my journal entries in a timely manner, has a variety of time slots available for individual therapy, and supports therapeutic interaction via video, voice or text. Her insight into my concerns and recognization of the progress I’ve made are highly appreciated.

Ashley has been extremely supportive, comforting and encouraging. I've been dealing with a lot of grief and results of family and social dysfunction. Ashley has been realistic in her assessments of the situations and encouraging of my next steps in dealing with these matters. She is extremely respectful, responsive and insightful.

She is an incredibly good listener, insightful, understanding, and as flexible as she can be.

She’s been there as an ear of sympathy and reminder of my own statements and views during an incredibly difficult and foggy period due to narcissistic abuse systematized by the judicial system and family court where I lived.

I recommend her without reservation. So many people are dealing with cluster B antisocial personality disorders in the population affecting our lives…. Statistically… evidence shows the entire world has a notable increase of narcissism and other such related disorders regardless of the reasons… a therapist very familiar with these disorders and behavior patterns is someone you’ll want to speak to when things get confusing. Boundaries are more important than good gestures and… I appreciate not feeling alone or as easily fooled thanks to our sessions.

Carolyn has been very helpful to me. She is kind, knowledgeable, has insight, asks me questions that help me think and that help me figure out what I want to do. She’s a natural at what she does.

I’ve had a great experience with this therapist. She makes me feel heard & offers great advice. & sometimes I just need to be heard & have someone to respond & show empathy & understanding. She gets that.
