Getting to know Ashley Valladares

Welcome! I’m Ashley Valladares, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion and support. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, occupational or relational concerns, self-esteem issues, or grief, my goal is to create a safe and supportive space where you feel heard, validated, and empowered.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I use a person-centered approach as the foundation of my work, ensuring that you feel seen and supported throughout your therapeutic journey. Together, we’ll explore strategies tailored to your unique needs, drawing on evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Solution-Focused Therapy. I work best with individuals who are willing and ready to see and make changes in their lives. Therapy is hard work but if you are ready for it, I’d be my pleasure to assist you on this journey.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Life can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. I’m here to help you gain clarity, build resilience, and develop the tools to overcome challenges and create a more fulfilling life. I always tell clients “the more you bring into session, the more I can provide.” All you need to do is show up and be willing to be vulnerable, explore your consciousness and commit to change.

Don’t see your insurance?

It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $150 for 45 minutes
Ongoing session: $120 for 45 minutes
  • Sliding scale: Offers lower out-of-pocket fees on an individual basis, typically based on your ability to pay
  • Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork

More information on payments and coverage

If you decide to book an intake with me and we find that we have a good therapeutic fit, I ask that we meet weekly at the start of our work together. Consistency is important in the early stages of therapy to build momentum and begin seeing meaningful progress. Once we’ve established that progress, we can explore moving to a biweekly schedule. I work best with clients who are able to commit to weekly sessions in the beginning, as it allows us to lay a strong foundation for change. For all virtual appointments, you must be physically located in a state where the provider is licensed at the time of the session, in accordance with state laws. If not, services cannot be rendered. Please also be mindful of your insurance plan’s deductible and out-of-pocket costs to avoid unexpected charges or cancellations.

Working with Ashley has been such a game-changer for me. She’s incredibly easy to talk to, and our sessions always feel comfortable and real. At the same time, she doesn’t just nod along. She’ll challenge my thinking in a way that’s supportive but also holds me accountable. Her insights are spot-on and never feel “out there” or disconnected from real life. They land in a way that sticks with me long after our calls. I also love that our work has felt like a true journey: each session builds on the last, and I can see how far I’ve come since we started. There’s a warmth and genuine connection in the way she works that makes me actually look forward to our weekly calls. It feels like talking to a friend who just happens to have the exact tools I need to see myself and my life more clearly.
Ashley is a wonderful therapist. She is very honest and easy to talk to and has helped me look at situations with different perspectives. I really appreciate our sessions and all of the tools she has given me to challenge my thought patterns and understand more about myself!
I feel comfortable in sessions with Ashley - she is easy to talk to and creates a space where I can be open without fear of judgment. I always feel understood and my feelings are validated, which means so much to me. I also receive thoughtful insights and tools that encourage self-reflection and help me better navigate challenges. I leave each session feeling heard, supported, and empowered to better myself.
My experience with Ashley has been the most comfortable experience that I have ever had with a therapist! After each of our session, I felt much more relaxed and grounded. Ashley is very kind, genuine, knowledgeable and takes her time with her clients to listen thoroughly and provide professional feedback!
My sessions with Ashley are always incredibly insightful. She creates such a safe and welcoming environment that I feel completely comfortable sharing my thoughts and feelings with her.
Ashley has felt like a friend who genuinely cares about what I have to say and she makes me feel comfortable telling her everything!! She provides very helpful tools and skills to help me get to the root of the problem rather than any short term fixes. 10/10 recommend Ashley
Ashley has been a breath of fresh air for me during one of the turbulent times of my adult life. She helped me work through immense grief, loss, and personal setbacks all while creating a safe space for me to be myself no matter how I was feeling. Where I lacked outside sources for emotional support, she was there for me. Whenever I needed encouragement to take the next steps necessary towards progress, she offered me validation and encouragement... I can't recommend her enough. ;-)

Ashley is very attentive, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to you. She makes you feel very comfortable and provides really helpful tools.
I will have to say , I was very skeptical of talking to a therapist but Ashely made me feel seen. Not sure really how to explain it but I’ve been doing all the things to help get my mental , emotional and physical state back to a place that’s where peaceful and I needed help doing that. The progress I’ve made while having her as my therapist is mind blowing still to this day. She’s really the best. Open honest and understanding. Especially when it comes to looking at things from a different perspective.
Literally the best therapist! Super understanding, gives the best advice, always feels like a safe space to speak freely with out judgement, would recommend every single time because shes that good!
Ashley was amazing with my son. she was understanding and kind. My son always looked forward to seeing her and she definitely kept him engaged during sessions as well.
personally, the last two years and change (the same amount of time i've been working with Ashley) have been a bit nightmarish. fighting through many phases, stages, and challenges all at once. and, of course with that there wasn't any stability or consistency in my life besides my weekly meeting's with Ashley. she has become someone i can count on to empower me, to listen, to give feedback without judgement, correct me when i'm wrong... she has helped me grow in so many ways, has given me tools to continue on my path of progression, and continuously reminds me of my strength, and the person who i'm working towards being. there's a lot of work, vulnerability, truth and patiences that goes into therapy, but having the guidance and help from Ashley has really made the work a little bit easier and extremely rewarding.
During each and every therapy session there was not a time that I did not leave without feeling seen and heard. Ashley is extremely skilled in all that she does. She guides with grace, discerns without judgement, supplies essential tools for growth, and will ultimately help take you to see the best version of yourself. I will always recommend her expertise to anyone!
Very compassionate and has made a huge impact on my life! She has created a supportive environment to express myself in a judgement- free zone.
Ashley has been an incredible addition to my mental health. I’ve been seeing Ashley for over a year and she has helped me improve many areas of my life - some areas I’ve been seeking help with and others that I didn’t know needed improvement. She provides great feedback and “homework” that allow me to make accelerated progress. In addition to her expertise, she’s very kind, genuine and easy to get along with. I would highly recommend Ashley to anyone!

Ashley has supported me through anxiety, depression, and anger, and her dedication and care have made such a difference. She takes her time and always remembers our conversations and makes herself available, showing how much she genuinely cares about helping me grow and heal. If you’re in search of a therapist I will highly recommend Ashley! She will guide your healing journey with patience, compassion, and profound understanding, making the process much smoother.

I had the privilege of working with Ashley for several months, and I can honestly say that she has been life-changing. From the very beginning, she helped me identify and understand my emotions in a way that I had never been able to before. Her ability to listen deeply and ask the right questions allowed me to uncover patterns in my thinking and behavior that were holding me back. What truly sets Ashley apart is her expertise and the practical tools she provided. She didn't just offer advice; she taught me concrete strategies for coping with challenges, managing difficult emotions, and improving my overall well-being. I now feel more equipped to face life's obstacles with confidence and resilience. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone seeking meaningful personal growth and healing. She’s an incredible therapist who can truly make a difference in your life.
Ashley is an amazing therapist. I've been seeing her for the better part of 2 years, and she's helped me get through some of my darkest days. She made me feel comfortable, understood, and never judged. I cycled through a few therapist before landing on Ashley, and I'm glad I found her when I did. She's honestly great, and I'm glad to have met her. I highly recommend this therapist!

She has really changed my life and my way of thinking. I don’t know where I would be without her. BOOK HER.
Working with Ashley always felt like a breath of fresh air. She is great at making one feel heard and seen. She offers many different perspectives to help unpack different emotions and thoughts. When it came to time management, there was never an issue. If something unexpected occurred like a technical difficulties or any sudden changes she is always good at communicating ahead of time.
