Getting to know Ashley Adler
I'm a Marriage and Family Therapist with training in attachment, somatics (body-based work), sex therapy and trauma. I am passionate about working with relational dynamics—including both monogamous and non-monogamous relationships—LGBTQ+ individuals, and those seeking to better understand themselves and their patterns. I believe we exist within the context of our relationships, communities, and lived experiences, and that healing happens when all parts of us—including the ones we’ve been taught to feel ashamed of—are welcomed with curiosity and compassion. My approach is relational, somatic, and deeply rooted in the belief that healing happens in safe, connected spaces.
I founded Wildflower Therapy to focus on the work I love most—creating a safe, affirming, and gently challenging space where clients can explore their experiences, relationships, and desires with curiosity and care. My goal is to honor each person’s unique journey while helping them cultivate deeper self-trust, connection, and fulfillment.
Before opening up my private practice, I trained at Mindful Experiential Therapy Approaches (META), a mindful somatic body-based therapy practice where I learned to integrate the body’s innate wisdom into the therapy process—bridging traditional talk therapy with embodied healing. I also worked at a sex therapy center, supporting couples in deepening their connection and enhancing intimacy, as well as individuals seeking empowerment in their relationship with themselves and their pleasure.
In addition, I have been trained at Stanford in interpersonal and group dynamics and have spoken publicly on LGBTQ+ dating and mental health in partnership with Goldman Sachs, MIT, and Out Professionals.
What should a new client know about working with you?
When I work with relationships, I take the time to really understand your dynamic—how you interact, where you get stuck, and how your past experiences might be shaping the present. The way we love and communicate is often influenced by what we learned growing up, the relationships we’ve been in, and the unspoken stories we carry. I also bring a focus on equity, exploring how each person’s experiences, identities, and histories show up in your relationship. When I work with individuals, I focus on creating a space of safety, curiosity, and deep listening. I use body-based awareness to help you reconnect with yourself in ways that go beyond words. While I will gently challenge you to step into growth, I trust that you are the expert in your own experience, and my role is to guide and support—not to push.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I am committed to providing culturally attuned therapy that honors each person’s unique lived experience. I know that healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum—our identities, histories, and environments all shape us. That’s why I approach my work with a deep respect for the complexities of each person’s lived experience, creating a space where all parts of who you are can be seen, held, and honored.
