Hi There, I’m Ashley

Psychological Counselor | Ma, Counseling | SGFB | ACA

Helping you connect more meaningfully with yourself, others, and the world around you.

I’m a therapist based in Lutry, Switzerland. I specialize in mental health counseling for childhood trauma, relationship concerns, loss of identity, depression, and anxiety. Many of my clients come to me feeling disconnected, depressed, grappling with low self-esteem, self-abandonment, lack of boundaries, or the pressure to meet societal expectations. Together, we work to process their stories, rebuild hope, and create a meaningful life.

My practice is a space to explore your truth with curiosity and compassion, process past pain, and cultivate resilience. No matter what you’ve been through, you are worthy of love and a life that feels fulfilling. I hope to empower you to make authentic choices and show up wholeheartedly in your life.

Anxiety

Daily demands, perfectionism, constant change, and the pull to find meaning can leave you feeling anxious and overwhelmed. We’ll explore how to ground and reconnect with yourself and make peace with change and uncertainty.

Depression

Depression often reflects a deeper struggle with finding meaning and navigating the gap between who you are and who you want to be. We’ll honor your experience, uncover the roots of your pain, and explore how to move forward with purpose and self-compassion.

Relationships

I offer both individual therapy to explore your relationship patterns and identity, as well as family and couples therapy to support connection with the people who matter most. Whether you’re navigating old dynamics, people-pleasing, or longing for more closeness, we’ll work together to build relationships rooted in authenticity, trust, and safety.

Trauma

Painful experiences often impact how you connect with yourself and the world around you. It can cause you to lose parts of who you are—or prevent you from ever fully developing those parts. We’ll process your story, rebuild your sense of identity, and move toward a life that feels whole.

Even if you are unsure what you are looking for, please do not hesitate to schedule a free consultation.

Family and Couples Therapy

Every relationship has different periods of closeness, distance, change, and growth. Couples and family therapy offers a gentle space to reconnect, repair communication, and better understand one another. Together, we’ll nurture your relationship, deepen emotional connection, and create a shared path forward.

You Deserve a
meaningful life you love

Life often makes you question who you are and what truly matters. Whether you're facing those questions alone or within the context of a relationship or family, I’ll help you explore them and create a life aligned with what’s important to you—one where you’re not just surviving, but thriving.
