Therapy at the Intersection of Physical Health, Mental Health & Adventure
Mindful support for active adults and mountain athletes in Colorado, Idaho and Washington
I’m glad you’re here.
Welcome. My name is Ash and I’m a licensed mental health therapist. I see physical, mental and emotional health as an integrated system.
I help active, driven people slow down enough to hear what their bodies and souls have been trying to say beneath the pressure to keep going. Many of the people I support are…
Thoughtful, capable, and used to holding it together for everyone else
Caught in a pattern of out-running, over-thinking & under-feeling
Functioning well on the outside while privately feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or exhausted
Along the traverse of life, we all hit difficult or unfamiliar terrain. You don’t have to go it alone. It can be helpful to have a team around you, to (occasionally) slow down enough get your head, heart and feet in the same place and to ensure you’re on the list of people you take care of.
Helpers. Creatives. Endurance Athletes. Injured Athletes. People in high-pressure professions. Therapists. Entrepreneurs. Healthcare workers. First responders. People who feel home in the mountains. People with chronic pain and persistent physical symptoms. People grieving. People who want to untie achievement from worth. People in midlife. People wading through uncertainty and existential questions. People wanting to express themselves more fully.
I Work Well With…
Specialties & Areas of Clinical Focus
Mountain Sports
Mountain athletes, endurance athletes, guides, first responders and those living an outdoor-oriented life have unique experiences that deserve unique support. Whatever new or challenging terrain you’re in, it’s okay to ask for help and work with someone who gets it.
Injury & Chronic Pain
It’s hard to feel our best when we’re experiencing physical health challenges. Whether you’re navigating a physical injury, a prolonged recovery, nervous system injury or chronic pain/illness, mind-body medicine can offer hope, and a way out,
Stress, Anxiety, Burnout
Living in a constant state of stress can leave us stuck in overdrive, depressed, disconnected, and physically ill. Learning new ways to support our nervous system and cultivating trust can create more steadiness and ease for the path ahead.
Grief & Loss
Grief and change are universal, yet they can reorganize life in profound ways. We may find deep pain, unexpected hurt, questions, and clarity. Honoring our aches can help us stay connected with what’s been lost & what still remains.
*Although these are my specialties, I truly enjoy supporting a variety of life experiences and concerns. If you’re interested in working together but don’t see what you’re looking for, I warmly invite you to reach out.
