About Ashleigh

img_9124-833×1024

Hi! I’m Ashleigh

I’m Ashleigh! While I am a registered clinical counsellor, I am first, a wife and Mum. I am married to my favourite person in the world! We have 3 kids (through birth and international adoption). While I do hold the professional title of registered clinical counsellor, my favourite one is Mama. Or Mum. Or Bruh. Regardless, I try to find gratitude in all the names. Most of the time.

At the core of my personal and professional life is the wholehearted belief that humans are intrinsically wired for both connection and healing. Therefore, it’s my privilege that you might consider me someone to (re)connect you to your authentic self, with your partner, with a life you want to fully live.

When you experience healing, you can truly begin feeling like your truest self!

  • Ashleigh is very wise. In my experience, she’s known just the right thing to say at just the right time. She is compassionate and validating towards others. Individuals feel safe opening up and being vulnerable with her because of this.

  • Ashleigh is compassionate, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. You’ll find her especially smile warm, and empathy bring you hope. Ashleigh is highly regarded by her peers, clients and friends. I consulted with her on cases and witnessed her enthusiasm to learn and expand her understanding to her cases. I highly recommend Ashleigh as a clinical counsellor and keep her number for referrals and consultations.

  • I have known Ashleigh for 7 years. In my interactions with Ashleigh, she honoured me, caused me to feel safe as well as valued. Ashleigh is a great and conscientious listener; she truly cares. She greatly values authenticity and I experienced her desire to connect, relate and be present. Ashleigh has encouraged me to continue to pursue wholeness and healing. I would highly recommend her as a professional counsellor.
