Ashton Smith- Ralston

My passion as a psychotherapist really lies in helping clients raise their consciousness and increase their level of self awareness. Addressing mind, body and spirit is key to self growth. Years of personal and professional experience and training have empowered me to raise my own consciousness and in turn assist my clients to empower themselves. Whether the presenting issue is anxiety, depression, substance abuse or relationships a holistic approach is needed to fully heal. It would be my honor to embark upon this journey with you! I use a cognitive approach investigating limiting beliefs (often subconscious) and patterns of behavior that no longer work for the client. Combined with mindfulness practice and energy psychology techniques I find this approach to be very effective. I am a certified diplomate of comprehensive energy psychology (DCEP). What is energy psychology? "Energy psychology is a family of evidence supported modalities that balance, restore and improve human functioning by combining physical interventions (using the acupuncture system, the chakras and other ancient systems of healing) with modern cognitive interventions."
