Therapists

I am passionate about helping my clients find their inner strengths and it is my goal that you will always leave our sessions knowing your value!

I specialize in eating disorders, OCD, and anxiety using a strengths and compassion-based approach. I also work well with those struggling with body image and body dysmorphia who are looking to heal their relationship with their body and food. As a former collegiate athlete, I love working with this population, as well. I am a HAES (Health at Every Size) practitioner and am passionate about providing non-diet, size inclusive care. As an eating disorder survivor and OCD warrior, I know what it's like to live with these disorders and wonder if there is a future without them.

I approach each client differently based on their individual needs, walking with them through the process, and collaborating on their care the entire time. Reaching out for help is scary, but you aren't alone.

I utilize a collaborative relationship with my clients to examine and change the factors that contribute to their disordered relationship with food an their bodies.

Family-based treatment and education help with boundaries. We also have Life Coaches available with one specializing in disordered eating.

Ashley’s treatment approach is culturally sensitive, collaborative, personalized, and feedback-informed, integrating strengths and unique worldviews. She has helped clients heal from eating disorders, depression, anxiety, and relationship issues for 10+ years in a variety of treatment settings, ranging from inpatient to outpatient community care.

In her direct work with clients, Ashley helps clients unpack patterns repeating in their lives and behaviors. She helps clients connect with who they are, their values and community, and their values as these greatly benefit wellbeing, perception of ourselves and others, and how we show up and connect in the world.

Ashley serves many women of color, immigrants/adult children of immigrants, folks in larger bodies, LGBTQ+, and first gen college students.

I have been working with people struggling with body image and eating disorders since 1983. Having recovered from an eating disorder as a teen and young adult, I have dedicated my life to trying to support others in truly understanding this illness. Parents are a child's most important support system and they should always feel welcomed into a therapist's office. I work with the family and ask them to join the team as collaborators.

In all sessions I do counseling and I help my clients to explore the principles of HAES and intuitive eating as they are ready. I practice from a trauma-informed perspective and frequently help clients to brainstorm ways in which they can manage difficult life situations and relationships. If the client is also interested in hypnotherapy, then we incorporate a range of different hypnotic techniques into the session which can help to integrate the counseling. I can help support parents who have kids with eating or body issues through education, building compassion skills, and teaching relational skills.

I am passionate about creating warm, open, and inclusive spaces for healing. My approach is grounded in radical love and acceptance, offering you the freedom to explore your most authentic selves in a safe, nonjudgmental environment. I loving working with fellow Queer, Trans, BIPOC, and neurodivergent individuals, and am passionate about fostering deep, long-term therapeutic relationships.

With clinical experience that includes time working at Kaiser, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals through a wide range of challenges. I had the gift of working with individuals of all ages and diverse backgrounds and now am so excited to step into private practice that I may offer an even more open-minded, flexible, and human-centered approach.

As a child of Indonesian immigrants, my personal experience with religious trauma and the complexities of intersectionality deeply inform my work. As a trans nonbinary person, I feel I bring a nuanced understanding of gender identity and am open to all gender experiences, but I definitely lend myself particularly to my queer community, helping fellow queer individuals explore their relationship to gender and sexuality no matter how you may identify. This exploration often includes uncovering who we are within the world and our systems.

My goal is to help you grow into your most confident, authentic, and loving self. I view therapy as a collaborative process, one that can unfold over time to help you navigate life’s challenges, heal from your past wounds, and meet the most self-accepting and self-loving version of yourself!.
