Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Trenton, NJ covered by Cigna

I have been an LCSW for over 15 years, and anxiety is where I do my deepest work..the racing thoughts, the physical tension, the constant "what if" that won't quiet down. I also work with clients navigating depression, major life changes, grief and divorce. But if anxiety is running the show in your life, that is exactly where I want to start.

My name is Ashley, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and Florida. I have experience working with individuals, families, and couples across the lifespan. I graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University with my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have been in clinical therapy work since 2017. Prior to that I was utilizing my psychology background in case management and social work support services in various settings, working with a variety of populations (including underserved people and minorities, and previously incarcerated individuals). It is truly my life's purpose to connect with others and I love empowering individuals on their personal journey.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 28 years of experience, I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling heard, understood, and accepted. Having worked with individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences, I tailor therapy to meet your unique needs and goals. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step!

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience working with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. My background and training in neuropsychology allow me to take a deeper look at patterns in thoughts, emotions, and behavior.

If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, a breakup, divorce, low self-esteem, or the effects of an emotionally unhealthy relationship, you don't have to face it alone. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can gain insight, build resilience, develop healthier coping skills, and create meaningful change.

I am a New Jersey Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) with a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Fairleigh Dickinson University. I have experience providing counseling services in private practice, schools, hospitals, assisted living, and correctional settings. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs, helping you build on your strengths and work toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

I believe in holistic and evidence based care. I support people of all ages who are navigating anxiety and depression, including children, teens, adults, and older adults. My role is to guide, support, and collaborate with you to create a treatment plan that aligns with your goals, values, beliefs, culture, and preferences. I want you to feel heard, respected, and understood-not reduced to a diagnosis. Together, we can make space for what is difficult and build a path toward steadiness, clarity, and meaningful change, at a pace that feels right for you. You do not need to have answers before reaching out; we can begin where you are.

I chose to become a therapist because I am amazed at the healing process through human connection. As complex beings, I am left in awe at the strength and resilience each individual possesses. I believe that despite difficulties faced, we have the power to rewrite our own story and live to fullest most authentic selves.

Our work together will not only aid you in overcoming any difficulties you may be facing but help understand patterns to develop tools that can be used in everyday life.

I aim to provide a healing space through compassion, support and acceptance. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic theory, however, I often utilize tools from different modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy and inner child healing.

I hope to have the opportunity to hear from you and help you achieve your greater self.
