Ashley Beer, AMFT

Hi, I’m Ashley (Ash), an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist who works with children, teens, and families to help them navigate life’s challenges with empathy, humor, and balance. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where young people can better understand their emotions, develop coping skills, and build confidence in themselves and their relationships.

I earned my B.A. in Psychology and Conflict Resolution from San Diego State University and my M.A. in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Play Therapy to support clients in gaining insight and emotional regulation.

My goal is to complete advanced training in Sex Therapy to better support clients exploring identity, intimacy, and relationships. My practice is LGBTQ+ affirming, inclusive, and open to clients of all backgrounds. I also welcome faith-based conversations when they align with a client’s needs, drawing from my own Jewish faith and appreciation for cultural identity.

When I’m not in session or spending time with my two kids, you can usually find me at a car show on the weekends, connecting with people and my community.
