Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselor
Currently accepting new clients: In person sessions and Telehealth sessions
Hello, my name is Ashley! Let me tell you a little bit about me!
I am one of the founders of this beautiful group practice, Cedar Tree Counseling of Oklahoma! Welcome to a space that I envisioned in my heart while getting to know and help so many wonderful people in our community. I truly believe when everyone is thriving in a community the unimaginable can happen: a kinder, safer, and happier community where everyone can prosper. It’s my passion to achieve this for our wonderful city and surrounding communities!
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion for providing high quality services to individuals struggling with their mental health. I grew up in New Jersey and moved to Oklahoma to attend The University of Tulsa. After graduating from TU, I continued on to obtain a Master’s degree in Education with a focus in counseling from Northeastern State University. I enjoyed Tulsa so much; I knew I had to follow my heart and stay to build a career helping those in need.
I use an effective blend of experience, expertise, clarity, and action in the counseling process to help achieve positive outcomes. Those outcomes include providing genuine healing and bringing a feeling of wholeness to individuals. I am a warm, non-judgmental, open, direct, and encouraging therapist. One of my primary goals in treatment is that every person feels safe, secure, and heard. I believe if a person can feel hopeful and can learn to challenge and replace irrational beliefs and thoughts, people are free to experience the changes they’ve been longing for.
I have experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, and older adults offering a unique combination of treatment approaches. I have specialized training in evidence- based practices including: EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Play Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. I have a background of supporting and helping those with:
- Trauma / PTSD
- Social Connection and Relational Concerns
- Self-Empowerment
- Anxiety / Depression
- Stress Management- academic, environmental, social
- Interpersonal relationships
- Grief and Loss
- Loneliness
- Low self-esteem/low confidence
Welcome to Cedar Tree Counseling! I look forward to meeting you and working together on your transformation to a healthier you!
