CENTER YOUR HUMANITY

NOT JUST YOUR SYMPTOMS

At Cooke Counseling Group, our mission is to provide a trauma-informed, culturally humble space where healing is grounded in authenticity, self-trust, and humanity. Whether you're navigating burnout, anxiety, people-pleasing, or trauma, we’re here to help you reconnect with your values, set boundaries without guilt, and stop carrying it all alone.

GO BEYOND TALK THERAPY

We’re more than a mental health provider — we’re a space where caregivers, first responders, professionals, and everyday overachievers can breathe, reflect, and reset. At Cooke Counseling, therapy isn’t about fixing you — it’s about honoring your lived experience and walking with you through the real, unfiltered work of healing.

 

We speak in real language.

 

We prioritize your full humanity.

 

And we don’t believe in simply surface-level self-care advice.

HI, I'M ASHLEY!

OWNER • ADVOCATE • TRUTH-TELLER
LICENSED CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER

I know what it’s like to carry too much, care too deeply, and try to keep it together. As a Black therapist with lived experience navigating multiple identities, I bring transparency, humor, and heart to everything I do—whether it’s therapy, supervision, or creating content that cuts through the noise.

I’m here to make therapy more human, more honest, and more helpful. Because healing doesn’t happen in perfection—it happens in permission.
