Ashley Burgess LCSW

I strive to create a safe, inclusive space where you feel heard, understood, and comfortable (but also challenged) so you can openly and honestly express your thoughts and feelings without judgment. My goal is for us to develop a therapeutic and collaborative relationship where we work together to explore what you're going through and work towards your goals. I compare therapy to driving a car. You are behind the wheel as the driver and in charge of taking us to your destination. As your therapist, I'm in the passenger seat, and I'm honored to be along for the ride. I hope to be a support, advocate, and listening ear for you to help you face any bumps in the road along the way.

I believe in meeting an individual where they are in therapy and utilize a strengths-based, client-centered holistic approach. I tailor my approach to each individual and often utilize a variety of modalities and interventions to best meet each individual's unique needs. Below are treatment approaches I often draw from: Solution-Focused Therapy Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Psychodynamic therapy Motivational Interviewing
