Ashley Joneswatkins, Resident In Counseling

I am a Resident in Counseling with over 2 years of experience, and I specialize in working with caregivers, as well as individuals managing anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, and life adjustments. My goal is to create a supportive, safe space where clients feel heard and understood. I am passionate about guiding people through life’s challenges and helping them develop tools that foster growth, resilience, and lasting positive change.

I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University and a Master’s in Human Services from Purdue Global University. Through my training, I’ve gained experience in crisis intervention, mental health first aid, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness practices, which I integrate into my work. I believe the key to any relationship is being present and meeting people where they are. I strive to provide space and opportunity for clients to speak freely without judgment, so they feel supported and empowered. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on helping individuals move forward with confidence.
