You don’t have to keep doing everything on your own.

Maybe you’re used to being the strong one—the person who keeps going, takes care of everyone else, and pushes through even when you’re exhausted. But underneath it all, you may be anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, angry, or simply tired of feeling like you’re constantly in survival mode.

Maybe your mind won’t slow down. You overthink everything, struggle to sleep, feel stuck in patterns you don’t understand, or find yourself reacting more strongly than you want to. Maybe relationships have become difficult, you’re struggling to reconnect with the people you love, or you’re wondering, “Why don’t I feel like myself anymore?”

You don’t have to come to therapy with all the answers. We can work together to understand what’s happening beneath the surface, untangle the patterns that are keeping you stuck, and develop practical tools to help you feel more grounded and in control. My goal isn’t simply to help you manage symptoms—it’s to help you understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, and build a life that feels more like yours.

I also believe that healing can involve the deeper questions of life. If spirituality, faith, personal beliefs, purpose, or meaning are important to you, I welcome bringing those parts of yourself into therapy. Sometimes healing isn’t just about feeling less anxious or depressed—it’s about reconnecting with who you are, what matters to you, and the life you want to create.

You’ve spent enough time surviving. You deserve the opportunity to heal, reconnect, and truly live. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’d be honored to help you along the way.

I am a bilingual Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides care in English and Spanish. I enjoy helping children and adults feel more understood, supported, and hopeful about their mental health. I work with concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, sleep difficulties, mood changes, and focus challenges. My goal is to make care feel comfortable, practical, and centered on what matters most to you.

I know that seeking therapy can feel overwhelming — especially if you’re carrying a lot on your own. I believe deeply in the strength, warmth, and resilience that come from our cultura, and I bring that understanding into every session.

I work with clients who want support navigating anxiety, trauma, stress, and life transitions, particularly when cultural identity and family dynamics play an important role. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, respected, and understood, while also using research-backed tools that truly help you move forward.

Whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, big emotions, parent-child conflict, or a difficult family transition, I'll help you build real understanding — and real tools — for lasting change.

For more than twenty years, I have had the privilege of walking alongside adolescents, adults, and couples during some of the most difficult and meaningful seasons of their lives.

Hello, and welcome.....I'm Ashley Ellison, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and I believe that seeking therapy is one of the strongest investments you can make in yourself.

I earned my Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and Master of Social Work (MSW) and am currently pursuing my Doctor of Social Work (DSW), with a focus on advancing clinical practice and social work education. Throughout my career, I've worked with children, adolescents, adults, and families in community mental health, outpatient therapy, crisis intervention, and care coordination. These experiences have allowed me to support individuals from diverse backgrounds with a wide range of emotional and behavioral health concerns.

I’m a cis-gender heterosexual female. My husband and I have a high school aged son. I’m originally from St. Louis, MO but I have lived in Florida for a combined 36 years because I love living in paradise. One of the things I enjoy about virtual work is seeing my clients’ pets too.

I was a non-traditional student and got my bachelor's degree at 29 and my master's degree at 32. The life skills I gained as I worked my way through school have been helpful throughout my career. For some people, the age of their therapist is important. I am 49 years old.

Some of my helpful qualities include being non-judgmental. I have talked to people of all kinds, many ages with all kinds of histories and all kinds of present lives. There really isn't a topic you can't discuss with me, I have never felt a client gave me "TMI" or too much information. You are guaranteed privacy and confidentiality. You can get judgment for free anywhere else. I believe everyone is doing the best they can with what they know.

I am often told after first sessions that I'm easy to talk to and those clients feel better just having gotten some things off their chest.

I have treated children and teens throughout my career beginning at my first job in foster care.since beginning in I graduated from my masters degree. I have also treated adults with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, PTSD, sexual dysfunction, porn addiction, people in the LGBTQ community & people in alternative lifestyles.

I also treated patients in hospice as well as other medical settings. I treat people with chronic illnesses and occasionally I treat people with life limiting illnesses.

Here at Headway I will treat anyone who is 10 or older because I believe they are best suited for virtual therapy. I'm open to appeals about this policy.
