Ashanté is a Resident in Counseling who uses an integration of Multicultural, Cognitive Behavioral, and Trauma-Focused, holistic therapies to provide guidance to those seeking therapeutic support. She recognizes that past traumas and lived experiences may cause us to repeat negative patterns in our routines and relationships that no longer serve us. She also notes that these patterns may have escalated overtime as we put our needs on the back burner and forget the importance of putting on our own oxygen mask before assisting others - leading to anxiety, depression, and/or hopelessness.

She is here to serve as a guide to your inner self. Her goal is to meet you where you are, validate your lived experiences as you are the author of your own story, and offer a respectful, empathetic, and honest perspective. She would like to aid in finding inner peace through outer understanding by introducing a toolbox of skills to address what you’re feeling.

Ashanté has worked with a variety of populations - children/adolescents, families, and young adults. Those experiencing a wide variety of issues benefit from her use of mindfulness and acceptance. She is committed to the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities. She is available to see clients virtually and in-person at the office in Fredericksburg, VA.
