Hello, welcome
I am so glad you are here

This is a space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself. Every experience, every challenge, and every triumph is part of your story - and together, we honour it, uncover your strength, and reveal the gold within.

Rediscover yourself.
Reclaim your story.
Shine through transformation.

Hi, I'm Ashley

I'm passionate about supporting you to uncover your strength, embrace your story, and step into a life that feels authentic and whole. 

 

As an Accredited Social Worker, Counsellor, and certified Motherhood Studies Practitioner, I work with adults* navigating trauma - including sexual assault, domestic violence, and childhood wounds - as well as women and mothers exploring identity, wellbeing, and the journey into and through motherhood.

I create safe, non-judgemental reflective spaces where you can reclaim your sense of self, heal from past experiences, and rediscover what truly matters to you.

 

I believe in living by your values, nurturing meaningful connections, and honouring your emotional needs - not as luxuries, but as essential acts of self-respect and care.

Together, we explore your resilience, your growth, and the gold in your story, helping you move toward a life that feels aligned, satisfying, and fully your own. Read More

"Working with Ashley has allowed me to be kinder to myself, learn to set boundaries in my own life, and support me to not only understand the impact of my trauma but also work with the challenges that come with it. I now feel more in control of my 'lizard brain' and can calm myself down when panic strikes."

- client, 42

“Ashley has supported me in a way I needed most, when I was at my lowest and darkest. She seemed to just 'get' me. I have gone from years of hating motherhood, not knowing myself, and wanting to run away, to feeling empowered and loving life again. And best of all, I am able to delight in my precious little ones, as well as tend to my own needs, without all the guilt.”

- client, 34

“From the very beginning, I felt fully seen and understood by Ashley. She helped me to realise I wasn't going crazy, and that there was nothing wrong with me, but rather that I had experienced deep pain and sadness, and that this was taking a toll. Ashley helped me navigate my tangled thoughts and feelings, and gently held hope until I was ready to do so myself .”

- client, 29

That's just how I like it!

 

As such, it may take a few business days for me to get back to you. In the
