You don't have to figure it all out alone.
Therapy for individuals, couples, and parents who want to understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and feel more at home in their lives.
Come tell us your story.
We'll help you make sense of it together.
Where are you in your story?
Finding Your Way Back to Yourself
Maybe you’ve spent so much time adapting, coping, or caring for everyone else that you’re not quite sure where you went. Therapy can be a place to understand yourself more deeply and begin living in a way that feels more like you.
Finding Your Way Back to Each Other
When you keep having the same conversations, missing each other’s intentions, or feeling more like opponents than partners, it can be hard to know how to reconnect. We’ll work to understand the patterns between you and build a relationship that feels safer, closer, and more like a team.
Finding Yourself in Parenthood
You can love your children deeply and still feel overwhelmed, overstimulated, depleted, or lost in the demands of parenting. Therapy offers a place where you get to be cared for, understood, and supported too.
There's More to the Story.
You are more than a diagnosis, a difficult season, or a pattern you can't seem to break. We look at the whole picture: your relationships, your experiences, your nervous system, your strengths, and the things that have shaped you. Together, we'll work toward understanding what's happening and finding ways forward that actually fit your life.
-
We'll look with curiosity at the patterns you're caught in, rather than treating you as something that needs to be fixed.
-
The way we connect with the people we love can shape how we feel, cope, and understand ourselves. We'll pay attention to what's happening between you, not just within you.
-
Therapy should make room for who you actually are. We'll work together to understand what you need, what works for you, and what helps you feel more like yourself.
-
When we can understand what's happening beneath the conflict, overwhelm, disconnection, or stuckness, we have more choices about what comes next.
Meet Ashley
I'm Ashley Barbour, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist Associate serving adults across North Carolina through virtual therapy.
I work with individuals, couples, and parents who are trying to understand themselves, their relationships, or the patterns that keep getting in the way of the life they want. My approach is warm, collaborative, attachment-informed, and grounded in the belief that you make sense.
I'm especially drawn to working with neurodivergent adults and the people who love them. I believe therapy should make room for the whole person, including the parts that don't fit neatly into a diagnosis, a role, or someone else's expectations.
You don't have to figure it all out alone.
Ready for Your Next Step?
You don't need to know exactly what you need before you reach out. We can start with a conversation, get a sense of what's bringing you here, and figure out together whether therapy with Relate WNC feels like a good fit.
