Hello, and welcome.....I'm Ashley Ellison, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and I believe that seeking therapy is one of the strongest investments you can make in yourself. Whether you're navigating a difficult life transition, managing anxiety or depression, healing from trauma, or simply looking for a safe space to better understand yourself, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
I earned my Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and Master of Social Work (MSW) and am currently pursuing my Doctor of Social Work (DSW), with a focus on advancing clinical practice and social work education. Throughout my career, I've worked with children, adolescents, adults, and families in community mental health, outpatient therapy, crisis intervention, and care coordination. These experiences have allowed me to support individuals from diverse backgrounds with a wide range of emotional and behavioral health concerns.

Choosing a therapist is one of the most personal decisions you’ll make, and I believe feeling genuinely understood is the foundation of meaningful change. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Palm Beach Atlantic University and have spent over a decade working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, relationship challenges, life transitions, and other complex mental health concerns across diverse levels of care.
My style is warm, authentic, and collaborative while remaining grounded in evidence-based treatment. I strive to create a space where you feel safe enough to be honest, supported enough to grow, and empowered to make lasting changes that extend well beyond our sessions. My goal isn’t simply to help you cope—it’s to help you build a life that feels more connected, balanced, and aligned with who you truly are.

The strength and courage it takes to be able to share our experiences is a beautiful and sacred part of being human. My passion is to help individuals express, embrace, and empower their whole selves. Through trauma work, we have the opportunity to break free from shame, guilt, fear, and struggle. This helps us reclaim our power and build resilience. This doesn't justify the pain or trauma, but I wholeheartedly believe that the root of our pain is also the source of where our healing begins.
My approach is direct and encouraging. As a Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CMHC), Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), Integrative Mental Health Professional (CIMHP), and Nutrition Specialist (CMHNS), I am devoted to therapy that explores how trauma shapes the nervous system and influences our mindset, beliefs, and emotional responses. Through continued education in neuroscience and integrative health, I can help you understand the elements of the mind, body, and self. This way, we learn about the unique makeup of your whole self and how these elements manifest in your life. With nearly a decade of experience in the mental health field, I have supported individuals navigating complex trauma, including:
- chronic stress, insomnia, and health concerns
- Neurodiversity including head injuries, TBI, ADHD, and ASD
- burnout, people pleasing, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and work-life balance
- emotional, physical, and sexual abuse
- codependency and attachment trauma
- religious, cultural, and generational trauma
- grief, loss, and bereavement

Oftentimes the beginning of any new journey can feel intimidating and overwhelming. Taking that first step toward something unknown can bring uncertainty, vulnerability, and discomfort. As your counselor, my goal is to meet you where you are, creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and accepted. I believe that healing and growth happen through genuine connection and collaboration. Together, we will identify realistic goals that align with your unique needs and values, while working at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

Sometimes life is hard...and sometimes, the word “hard” doesn't begin to cover it.
You may feel stuck, overwhelmed, lost, or simply tired of feeling the way you do. Maybe you know that experiences from your past are still affecting you today, or you find yourself repeating patterns you understand but can't seem to change. Other times, you may not know exactly what's wrong...you just know that something isn't working anymore.
Over the years, I've helped adults heal unresolved wounds from childhood, develop greater self-awareness and self-esteem, improve relationships, and make life-enhancing changes that allow them to feel more connected to themselves and the lives they want to live. I work with people navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and the everyday challenges that can leave us feeling overwhelmed.
I believe we all have the ability to grow and make meaningful changes in our lives. Sometimes we just need some help finding our strengths and figuring out what we need now.
Each of us has our own unique story and experiences. It's a privilege when someone chooses to share their story with me, and I'll meet you wherever you are in yours.
**Please note: I may have availability beyond what is currently shown on my calendar. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly to schedule a consultation call: [email protected] :)

You’re smart, self-aware, and successful in many areas of life—but relationships are where you struggle.
I help clients who feel stuck in toxic or unfulfilling relationships rebuild their self-trust, break free from people-pleasing, and develop healthy boundaries—so they can start creating relationships that feel emotionally safe, respectful, and real.
Are you questioning yourself constantly, second-guessing your needs, feeling anxious when you speak up, and guilty when you say no? You may have done the inner work—but you still find yourself repeating the same patterns in love. I'm passionate about helping my clients build more fulfilling relationships.
