Hello! I’m Ashley, a Licensed Independent Social Worker–Clinical Practice (LISW-CP). I support individuals navigating anxiety, low self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship challenges, helping them move from feeling stuck to feeling more confident and grounded.

I have extensive experience working with adolescents and families, providing mental health support in both school and community settings. This background allows me to understand the impact of family dynamics, life stressors, and developmental challenges across different stages of life.

I am passionate about helping people feel seen, heard, and empowered to grow. My goal is to support you as you rebuild confidence, gain clarity, and step into a stronger, more grounded version of yourself. I believe that your past does not define you and that with the right support, you can create meaningful, lasting change.

Therapist

When someone you love is struggling with mental health or substance use, it can take over your entire life. You may feel anxious, constantly on edge, and unsure what to do next. You might be asking yourself: Am I helping, or making things worse? When do I step in? How do I set limits without pushing them away? If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

I specialize in working with family members of individuals in crisis. While many providers focus on the person struggling, I focus on you—the parent, partner, or loved one trying to hold everything together. With over 10 years of experience in dual diagnosis treatment and clinical leadership, I help families understand what’s happening, respond more effectively, and create clear, realistic boundaries.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Summerville, SC

Searching for therapists in Summerville starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties and approaches that fit your needs. Some therapists focus on methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy. Others may highlight experience with couples therapy, marriage counseling in Summerville, Christian counseling, or support for specific life stages.

In a smaller city like Summerville, local therapist availability may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual sessions can expand your options while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in South Carolina. If in-person care matters to you, consider office location, commute time, and appointment times that fit your week. It also helps to confirm whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers a free phone consultation, and provides the type of session structure you prefer. Reading therapist profiles before booking can show how each therapist describes their style, communication approach, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Summerville can be a significant cost without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists, counselors, and psychologists who match your preferences, are accepting new patients, and may accept your insurance. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. From there, you can compare profiles, review specialties, choose virtual or in-person care, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
