SPECIALIZING in THERAPY for WOMEN and TEENS
Accepting New Clients
Therapy is an invitation to connect with ourselves.
It is an invitation to explore the full range of our human experience; to lean into the messiness, to uncover beliefs that are keeping us stuck, to develop emotion regulation tools, to practice self-compassion and self-love, and to explore a new way of being. Therapy is an invitation to understand ourselves more deeply and to connect with the most authentic version of ourself.
I’m here to support you on your journey.

y o u ’ r e h e r e.
I’m Ashley, and I know that being a human can be hard sometimes. If you struggle with self-confidence, anxiety, setting boundaries, building healthy relationships, or navigating life’s ups & downs, you're not alone. I work with women, adults, and teens, providing a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your challenges and tap into your own wisdom and strength.
The Office
Welcome! This is where we’ll work together if you are looking for in-person therapy sessions.
I share my office with two wonderful, female Naturopaths at Elevated Natural Health. We’re on the first floor of the Marina Mart building on Westlake Ave N. There is inexpensive parking right in front of the building as well as a Metro bus stop, and a walking & biking path. Water & tea are available in the cozy waiting area. You may be greeted by Millie, the office’s emotional support dog-in-training. (If you are not a fan of dogs, please let me know and we will put her outside ahead of your appointment.)

Ashley Martin, MA, LMHCA
My approach provides warmth, understanding, and validation, in conversational style sessions. I incorporate a variety of therapeutic methods to most effectively address your needs. This is a collaborative process rooted in the belief that you have the capacity to cultivate the change necessary to live a meaningful, fulfilling life.
We will work together to create a space for inner healing and empowerment where you will be able to cultivate a more authentic relationship with yourself. Through the practice of self-awareness, self-compassion, self-acceptance, and the development of boundaries, coping strategies, and self-regulation tools, we may improve insight, self-worth, and connection to a more peaceful, confident, and empowered self.
My areas of expertise include: women's issues, self-esteem, anxiety, dis-empowerment, cultural identity, life transitions, creating healthy relationships, setting boundaries, parenting, and complex trauma.
If you are ready to overcome feelings of inadequacy, distress, or helplessness, and find greater satisfaction in relationships, both with yourself and others, you’ve already taken the first step just by being here. Contact me to set up a free 15 minute phone consultation.
