Ashley Larose - Associate Psychotherapist
Do you find yourself overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in certain patterns, or struggling to manage your emotions, relationships, or just day-to-day life? If this resonates with you, know that you don't have to navigate it by yourself. Reaching out for help can be difficult—but it’s also courageous, and something to be proud of.
Whether it is your first time in therapy or you're returning after time away, my goal is to meet you exactly where you are. As your therapist, I will listen to understand your story, your struggles, and what’s led you to seek support. I bring empathy and nonjudgmental curiosity to every session.
I provide compassionate, culturally attuned therapy in New York, offering support for anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges through individual and couples counseling.
Using an integrative, strengths-based approach, I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and solution-focused therapy—always tailoring my approach to meet your needs. Together, we’ll address the concerns that bring you in while developing practical tools and strategies you can use outside of our sessions. With a holistic approach, we help you find healing and growth in ways that feel authentic and sustainable.
I know what it’s like when you’re not in a good place mentally—or don’t know how to begin the journey back to yourself. That’s what inspired me to become a therapist: to be part of the solution for those seeking clarity, healing, and renewed confidence. There’s no greater reward than watching someone feel empowered in their own life again.
Recently, I received my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Hunter College, and earned my Bachelor’s in Psychology with a concentration in Africana Studies at Stony Brook University. My academic training and lived experience fuel my commitment to cultural responsiveness and holding safe space for people of all identities and backgrounds.
I support a variety of people, and especially enjoy helping those navigating young adulthood, a time that can feel overwhelming and uncertain.
Everyone has a story worth telling. I’d be honored to help you tell—and even rewrite—yours.

In Ashley’s Words
What is one of the things that excites you about being a therapist today
One of the things that excites me about being a therapist today is knowing that I am giving people a safe space to come and work on themselves free of judgment. Just having someone to talk to can make such an impactful difference in a client’s life, and I greatly value and look forward to being in a position to provide that help.
I knew I wanted to become a therapist when…
I knew I wanted to become a therapist while working towards my Bachelor’s degree as a research assistant in a Mental Health lab. In my work, I met with teens with depression. I felt like by just collecting data, I wasn’t doing much to help address their symptoms in the here and now. I then decided to pursue becoming a therapist, where I could be more hands on and directly counsel those struggling with mental health.
