                    "It’s not about feeling better. It’s about getting better at feeling.”

                        - Dr. Gabor Maté

Ashley Draper, LMFT

A holistic approach to mental health for individuals in the Bay Area and California 

You’re not broken for feeling broken. You’re not too much for noticing what others avoid. And you’re not wrong for wanting something different.

​

Maybe you've been told you're the problem when all you did was speak the truth. Maybe you’re carrying guilt, grief, and self-doubt simply for trying to live differently than the dysfunction you were raised in. You long for connection but feel trapped in patterns you didn’t choose. This isn’t just stress, it’s the pain of becoming someone no one showed you how to be. You don’t have to do this alone.

​

Therapy can be the space where your truth is safe, your questions and feelings are welcome, and your healing matters. A place to untangle what was never yours to carry and start creating something new.

Whether you're a parent or an individual trying to do things differently, this is what it means to be the first to break the cycle. To no longer carry the burden of the past and give yourself (or your children) what you were always meant to be given as a child. 

​

You’re not failing. You’re healing.

​

As your therapist, I offer a supportive space where we’ll gently explore inherited patterns, reconnect with your body, and build emotional resilience. We’ll work at your pace, using a holistic approach that honors your mind, body, and spirit so you can set boundaries, heal old wounds, and move forward with clarity and self-trust.

​

You are not the problem. You are the beginning of something new.

If you're ready to begin, I’m here to walk with you.
