Ashleigh Burroughs

Associate Professional Counselor

Navigating the challenges of today's world can be tough. If you're managing school or work stress, adapting to new roles, feeling anxious and overwhelmed, or navigating life changes, I'm here to support you.

I work with clients to process their growing pains through self-expression and use creativity in my sessions often. Whether that is writing, drawing, or other forms of art, we can use those skills to help you process and externalize even the most challenging emotions.

My hope is that through our work together you will feel ready to tackle anything life throws at you with confidence and ease!

Client Focus: Adult Individuals, Children ages 8 and up. 

Types of therapy: Expressive Arts Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Issues: Anxiety, depression, life changes, teen issues 

Experience: Ashleigh is an Associate Professional Counselor and a University of Georgia graduate. She has worked as a middle school guidance counselor and currently works with adolescents, young adults and adults struggling with depression, anxiety and life transitions.

More than just my work:

“Loving ourselves through the process of owning our story is the bravest thing we’ll ever do.” -Brene Brown

I have a deep love for coffee shops and I can often be caught spending time there doing work or catching up with a friend.

I am a huge UGA fan and proud alumna, so I often spend my Saturdays in Athens cheering on the dawgs! 

The best way to get to know a service is through what people have to say...

"Ashleigh is an incredibly kind and genuine therapist. Her passion for supporting young people drives her work with clients. She is an excellent choice for adolescents and young adults seeking compassionate care.” - HM 

“Ashleigh is one the most kind-hearted and understanding people I know. I have had the opportunity to watch her grow and develop as a counselor and I would confidently recommend her to anyone in need of her services. If you are in need of a passionate, driven, and down to earth counselor, Ashleigh is your person!” - RW
