Ashton Smith

My trauma-informed approach recognizes how past experiences profoundly impact your present life. In our therapeutic space, I am dedicated to creating an environment that radiates warmth, fosters collaboration, and offers unwavering support, free from judgment. Here, vulnerability is embraced as a powerful aspect of growth, and empathy and compassion are at the heart of our work together. My passion lies in guiding you toward becoming the most empowered and authentic version of yourself. Whether you're dealing with trauma, anxiety, mood disorders, relationship issues, grief, or life transitions we will work together to uncover your inherent strengths, equip you with innovative coping strategies, and foster enduring transformations. I am committed to actively supporting you as you take courageous steps toward your goals, navigate life's challenges with grace, and elevate your overall well-being. I extend my hand to walk alongside you on your profound journey towards healing and wellness. Together, we will unveil the most authentic version of yourself. I specialize in treating a wide range of issues, including trauma, anxiety, women's issues, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My techniques include: Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Managing Emotional States Effectively (MESE), Trauma Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Gottman Method Couples Counseling, and Family Systems Therapy.
