ASHLEY CLIFTON, M.A., M.S.Ed.
Licensed Associate Counselor
Holistic Wellness Practitioner
Welcome — I’m so glad you’re here.
Whether you found this space through a friend’s recommendation, a flyer, or your own late-night search for support, I want you to know this: you’re in the right place.
​
Reaching out for help with your mental health and well-being takes real courage — and the fact that you’ve landed here tells me you’re already showing up for yourself in a powerful way.
This space is centered on you and your path toward greater clarity, connection, and healing.​
​
If you're looking for a therapist or practitioner who shows up authentically, listens with intention, and walks beside you through your healing journey — I'm honored to be considered.
​
Take a breath — you’re here for a reason, and a more grounded, connected future is within reach. I’m looking forward to walking with you, whenever you’re ready.
HEALING BEGINS WITH A CONVERSATION
THERAPY THAT MAKES ROOM FOR ALL OF YOU
If you’re here, it probably means something inside you is ready — ready to be seen, heard, and supported. Whether you're carrying grief, navigating identity, unraveling old patterns, or just trying to make it through the day, you don’t have to do it alone.
​
Therapy with me is a space where your whole self is welcome. I work with adults in Arkansas through secure, telehealth-only sessions, offering support that is compassionate, affirming, and rooted in trauma-informed care.
​
This space was created especially for people who often feel left out of traditional therapy settings — folks navigating gender, sexuality, neurodivergence, chronic pain or illness, grief, body image, spiritual trauma, or deep-rooted wounds that take time to name.
​
If you’ve ever felt too complicated, too emotional, too different, or not enough — you’re in the right place.
​
Here, you set the pace. Here, your truth matters.
And here, healing doesn’t mean fixing yourself — it means coming home to who you already are.
YOU'RE ALLOWED TO TAKE UP SPACE
HOLISTIC WELLNESS SUPPORT
There are moments when words can only go so far — when the body, spirit, and nervous system are asking to be heard in other ways. That’s where holistic healing comes in.
​
Through gentle, heart-centered practices like Reiki, meditation, trauma-informed yoga, and intuitive tools like tarot and guided self-massage, I offer support that honors your full humanity — not just your thoughts, but your energy, your breath, your story, and your presence.
​
These offerings are rooted in care and connection, designed to help you soften, reconnect, and return to yourself in a way that feels grounding, sacred, and uniquely yours.
​
If you're seeking something beyond talk — something intuitive, embodied, and soul-nourishing — this space is here to meet you.
YOU ARE NOT TOO MUCH, COME JUST AS YOU ARE
INCLUSIVE CONSULTING FOR HELPING PROFESSIONALS
There are seasons in our work when the questions get louder, the doubts creep in, or the next steps just feel unclear — when we need someone to sit beside us, listen deeply, and help us sort through the noise. That’s where consulting comes in.
Through collaborative, heart-centered conversations, I support therapists, graduate students, and helping professionals in creating work that feels sustainable, values-driven, and aligned with who they are. Together, we explore the real-life challenges of private practice, burnout recovery, identity, advocacy, and showing up authentically in a field that often asks us to shrink.
These sessions are rooted in care and transparency, designed to help you clarify your path, reconnect to your purpose, and make space for the version of your work that actually feels like you.
If you’re seeking guidance that’s grounded, affirming, and free of gatekeeping — a space where you can bring your full humanity to the table — you belong here. How can I help?
YOUR STORY DESERVES TO BE HEARD
BRINGING MY WHOLE SELF, SO YOU CAN BRING YOURS
Let’s be real — I’m not a blank-staring, clipboard-holding therapist who nods silently while you spill your soul. That’s just not my style.
When you work with me — whether through therapy, consulting, or holistic wellness — you’re getting the real deal: a neurodivergent, chronically ill human who shows up fully and unapologetically. I curse occasionally, laugh often, and always keep it honest. I bring my whole self into the therapy room, consulting space, and Zoom calls alike, because I believe real growth happens in real connection — not clinical detachment or cookie-cutter advice.
Sometimes that looks like supporting you as you untangle old patterns in therapy. Sometimes it’s helping you build a private practice, survive grad school, or navigate burnout through consulting. And sometimes it’s guiding you back into your body and energy through holistic tools like Reiki, meditation, or trauma-informed yoga. However we work together, the heart of it stays the same: creating a space where you feel seen, supported, and free to show up as your whole self.

I reflect your growth back to you often, challenge you lovingly when you’re ready, and share small, intentional pieces of my own experience when they help build connection or offer perspective — never to center myself, but to meet you in the messy middle of being human.
I believe in showing up with empathy, blunt honesty, and a whole lot of heart. Whether we’re talking healing, work, rest, or purpose, the space we create together is equal parts grounding, gut-checking, and grace-filled — because you deserve somewhere you can be fully yourself… and I’ll be fully me, too.
