About Me

Ashlee works with clients across the lifespan- from curious, creative two-year-olds to adults navigating complex life experiences. She considers it a deep honor to be invited into her clients’ journeys and creates space for healing, even when words are hard to find. Her work is rooted in a trauma-informed, developmentally-sensitive, and relational approach, with a strong foundation in attachment theory and neurobiological safety.

Ashlee integrates a range of expressive and evidence-based therapies into her practice, including art, play, music, breathwork, mindfulness, animal-assisted therapy, and EMDR. She approaches each client with cultural humility and seeks to join with them in drawing on their strengths as they move toward healing.

Ashlee specializes in the treatment of complex trauma and dissociative disorders, working with helping professionals, and providing care to clients with various treatment-resistant presentations.

Dedicated to supporting the next generation of therapists, Ashlee trains and supervises counselors-in-training and provides consultation for EMDR clinicians who are expanding their work with complex trauma through a developmental, parts-of-self, and attachment-focused lens.
