Esthetician specializing in:

Lash Extensions, Body Waxing, Facials:

After 20 years in the health industry, I transitioned to becoming an esthetician with a holistic approach to skincare, recognizing the interconnectedness of the body. During our appointments, I prioritize educating my clients, providing them with a comprehensive understanding to achieve radiant, healthy skin.

My journey began with my first set of eyelash extensions in 2016, an experience that inspired me to offer this transformative service to others. The freedom from mascara, the convenience of waking up ready for the day, and eliminating the need to pull on delicate eye skin to remove makeup solidified my belief in its benefits.

Whether delivering a serene, informative facial or enhancing natural beauty with wake-up-with-makeup eyelash extensions, Brazilian and body waxing, eyebrow shaping and tinting to frame the face, my motivation remains steadfast: empowering clients to embody confidence, health, and beauty.

Ashley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nearly 12 years of experience supporting clients through healing, growth, and nervous system regulation. Through years of listening to clients’ stories and deepening her understanding of the brain and nervous system, Ashley recognized that while traditional talk therapy is valuable, it doesn’t always reach the deeper layers where trauma and stress can remain “stuck.”

Ashley was originally trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and appreciated its powerful brain–body approach. Yet she sensed something was missing. Brainspotting became that missing piece.

Discovered through EMDR, Brainspotting is a brain-based therapy that allows for more precise and focused processing. This approach helps access and resolve thoughts, memories, beliefs, and body sensations that may not fully shift through insight, awareness, or coping skills alone. By working directly with the nervous system, Brainspotting supports deep relief in those “sticky” areas that seem to resurface no matter how much they’re talked through.

Ashley is passionate about helping clients experience meaningful, lasting change by going beyond the surface and supporting the body’s innate ability to heal.

Outside of her work, Ashley loves being outdoors, exploring the mountains with her dog, and traveling whenever she can.
