Getting to know Brettina Ashworth

Hi there, I'm Brettina! The decision to go to therapy is an important first step in taking care of yourself and your mental health. Life is a journey, and sometimes it helps to have some support along the way. I provide a safe and welcoming space to do just that. When you are ready, I would love to meet you and talk about how I can help support you. My approach I use a variety of approaches to tailor my therapy to your individual needs, strengths, and struggles. I most often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge your unhealthy thought patterns to Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help you process your emotions. My focus Have you been struggling with anxiety, depression or experienced trauma? I can help you by giving you a safe space to process your feelings, learn about healthy coping skills and use those skills to help you navigate your journey more efficiently. My communication style I offer a warm, compassionate space where clients feel truly heard and supported. As an empathetic listener with a nurturing presence, I bring a calm and nonjudgmental approach to therapy, helping individuals feel safe as they explore life’s challenges. I believe in the healing power of humor, authenticity, and connection, and strive to create a welcoming environment where growth can occur. My journey to mental healthcare My journey to becoming a therapist began with a deep curiosity sparked in my very first psychology class—a desire to understand why people think, feel, and behave the way they do. Over time, that curiosity grew into a passion for helping others live healthier, more connected lives. I’m drawn to the work of therapy because I genuinely value hearing people’s life stories and experiences. It’s a privilege to support individuals in exploring their emotions, gaining insight into their behaviors, and discovering new ways to grow and heal. My goals for you I view therapy as a partnership. You are driving the vehicle in your life.
