Ashley Arriola, LPC-MHSP, PMH-C

Co-CEO & Licensed Therapist

*Currently accepting perinatal clients*

I am passionate about helping folks heal and navigate through their current situations. As a mom and survivor of postpartum depression and anxiety, I know first-hand how difficult the perinatal phase of life can be. It is my honor to walk alongside individuals navigating the many challenges surrounding pregnancy and parenthood in hopes of making this phase of life easier to navigate.

One of my favorite quotes is this one from Brené Brown: “Vulnerability is not winning or losing. It’s having the courage to show up when you can’t control the outcome.”

It is my goal to create a safe space for my clients to be vulnerable and to help you find your voice and empower you to love yourself throughout your journey.
