Dr. Ashley helps individuals navigate life challenges such as unresolved grief, relationship difficulties, and major transitions, including divorce, parenthood, career changes, and relocation. Dr. Ashley's passion for mental health care began at UCLA, where she earned her bachelor's degree in psychology and volunteered as a listener on UCLA's Peer-Run Warm Line.
