Hello! I’m Ashley, and it’s so great to meet you.

I am 38, married, a mom, and I have always wanted to be a therapist. My journey has been anything but linear. I hold the professional titles of Registered Psychotherapist and Certified Career Development Practitioner. However, those are just technical words to describe what I am passionate about - helping others thrive at work and in life! We all have that one subject we can talk nonstop about - for me, that is careers and life satisfaction. I have had an eventful journey getting to this point, and I hope that sharing some of my story and timeline inspires others to reach for things that may seem out of grasp.

I have a business backround, working for 10 years in Human Resources and Career Development. I have had the privilege of serving a diverse community in a variety of professional settings including head hunting, post-secondary education, consulting, and non profit sectors.

After years in a traditional office environment, the conventional 9-5 just wasn’t for me. I began searching for opportunities that allowed me to help others while fitting my desired lifestyle. During this time of transition, I also became a mother and grappled with the challenge of reclaiming my identity beyond motherhood. This led me to a fitness community where I became a coach for 6 years. This experience not only helped me find balance in my life but also enabled me to guide hundreds of people in doing the same. However, deep down, I still wanted to be a therapist and help on a deeper level.

Near the end of the pandemic and after some soul searching, I was finally ready to embark on the next leg of the journey - going back to school (yikes!). As I experienced the hectic life of a mature student, I have used skills and techniques to maintain balance in my life. I’m enthusiastic about sharing these insights with you. I am now established in my counselling career and I have had the privilege of meeting amazing people who have found it within themselves to reach out and restore balance and passion in their lives.

If you’re looking for a modern and practical approach to career counselling that combines solution-focused psychotherapy, we may be an excellent fit to work together. I look forward to exploring with you.
