If you have been feeling anxious, stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns, frustrated, or weighed down by self doubt, you do not have to sort through it alone. For over 20 years, I have helped individuals, couples, and families work through anxiety, conflict, anger, and self esteem challenges. I am an LCSW with an MSW from the University of Maryland at Baltimore, and I bring both skill and warmth to this work.
I'm Gifty Danso, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University, and since then, I've worked across a range of settings — inpatient units, outpatient clinics, and correctional facilities. That variety has given me a real appreciation for meeting people wherever they are in life. Over the years, I've supported adolescents, adults, and older adults dealing with everything from depression and anxiety to addiction and psychosis.
Hello, and welcome! I'm glad you're here. I'm a clinical psychologist specializing in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, chronic health conditions, stress, and life's unexpected challenges.
I believe emotional and physical health are deeply connected. Whether you're coping with a medical diagnosis, feeling overwhelmed by daily stress, or simply looking to feel more like yourself again, I'll meet you with compassion, curiosity, and practical support. Together, we'll create a path toward greater balance, resilience, and well-being.
I bring over a decade of professional experience to therapy along with my own life experiences, empathy, understanding, and hopefully a little humor along the way.
While my license is as a Marriage and Family Therapist, I strive to live my own life as authentically and intentionally as I can as a parent, family member, and friend—and I bring those same values into the therapy room.
I believe every person has a story worth telling and deserves to feel heard without judgment. It is truly an honor to witness the strength and resilience my clients possess, and I never take for granted the trust they place in me by allowing me to be part of their journey.
You’re capable and use to managing a lot, but lately life feels overwhelming.
I’m Ashley Walay, LICSW, and I work with BIPOC women and LGBTQ+ individuals, professionals, single parents, and military-connected individuals (including spouses, veterans, contractors, and civilian employees) experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, chronic stress, and life transitions.
I value clear, direct communication and tailor therapy to your needs, whether you want tools or space to process. Together, we’ll work toward greater clarity, balance, and confidence.
