Unburden
Feel
Heal
Ashley Flanagan, LCPC
My focus as a therapist is to help individuals who have experienced trauma, anxieties, and depression. Through the therapeutic relationship, I work with people to increase their personal discovery and gain access to the expression of authentic emotion. I believe we are innately designed to survive, and sometimes our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are negatively enacted. My framework identifies that each person is doing the best they can in the moment and it is the therapist’s job to investigate additional moments of resilience, persistence, and self-compassion toward healing.
Focuses
Individual Therapy: Trauma, PTSD and C-PTSD, ADHD, Anxiety, Peer Conflict, Mood Disorders, Suicidal Ideations, Self-Harm, Self Esteem, Sports Performance, Eating Disorders, Life Transitions, and Neurodivergence.
