About Ashley Bishop, L.C.S.W.
The pressure of being a woman in today’s society can be challenging, even for the most successful. The idea that we have to “do it all” in order to “have it all” can be overwhelming and downright paralyzing at times.
Each stage of a woman’s life can present a different set of challenges. Are you struggling to find your path as you are entering into adulthood? Are you finding retirement age challenges to be too much to handle on your own? Or are you somewhere in-between? Do you feel guilty because you chose a career over a family, or a family over a career? Are you overwhelmed because you chose both but feel you are not living up to your or everyone else’s expectations?
Do you feel inadequate because you feel a major part of your life is missing but you are not sure how to find it? Do you feel like on paper, you have it all, but just can’t shake the feelings of depression, anxiety, overwhelm, or inadequacy? Or maybe you just need a few minor adjustments to be able to live your life to the fullest.
I’ve been there, and through the help of others, I was able to reframe the way I viewed my life and make changes to allow myself to live with peace and joy again. I love helping other women work through their issues and gain control over their lives, and I would love to help you through your journey.
My Values
Confidentiality
Accountablilty
Compassion
Acceptance
Your confidentiality is of the utmost importance to me. With very few exceptions (where dictated by law for safety purposes), you can trust what is said between us stays between us.
Often, we know what we need to do, but have a hard time doing it. I will help you learn to hold yourself accountable, to allow you to meet your goals.
Sometimes, we just need someone to listen without judgement; someone to show kindness and support. Compassion is at the core of my being and my practice.
I welcome anyone who identifies as a woman or identifies with women’s issues, regardless of sex, gender, or sexual identity. All races, ethnicities, and religions welcome.
