Hello, I'm so glad you're here.

For the past 13 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I've had the privilege of walking alongside adults who feel unsure of themselves—those who wake up with anxiety, struggle through depression, or find themselves questioning their worth and direction. These feelings of uncertainty can be isolating, but they also represent the beginning of important self-discovery. Recently, I completed my PsyD, which has enriched my ability to help clients understand the underlying root causes of their patterns and behaviors. My goal through therapy is to help you discover your inner strengths to overcome life's challenges and promote personal growth.

I work with women of color who are tired of always being the strong one. If you’re carrying old wounds that still feel fresh, stuck in patterns that don’t even feel like yours, or wondering when it’s finally your turn to be cared for; I’m here for that. You won’t have to code-switch with me. Let’s set down the masks you wear just to move through the day.

In this space, you get to be fully seen--the soft parts, the angry parts, the parts you’ve hidden just to keep the peace. All of you is welcome here. Together, we’ll make room for the messy, the painful, and the hopeful parts of your story, at a pace that feels right for you. Healing doesn’t have to be perfect; it just has to start with a space where you’re safe to be real.

The journey to becoming a therapist wasn’t a straight line for me—I arrived here after walking many different paths in my life. For me, being a therapist isn’t about being an expert who sits above you. It’s about someone you can feel warm with, open with, and safe around.

Ashley Weiss-Wright

Ashley Weiss-Wright

Therapist

Virtual • California


My journey into mental health began with a deep interest in the intersection of human behavior and emotional resilience.

I enjoy working with adolescents and adults going through life transitions and experiencing trauma. My current practice includes individual treatment helping adults with anxiety and depression, self-esteem/confidence, grief, trauma and life transitions.

Finding a therapist with whom you connect with is important.

Over the past 14 years, I have worked in a variety of settings, including private practice, community clinics and public school settings. These experiences have shaped my belief that therapy is not a "one-size-fits-all" process, but rather a collaborative partnership built on trust and evidence-based strategies.

I hold a Master of Social Work from California State Long Beach as well as a Bachelor of Social Work from Azusa Pacific University.
