As an art therapist, I utilize the creative process as a means of self-exploration, stress relief, and emotional healing, particularly for individuals who find it difficult to articulate their feelings or experiences in words. With collaboration, connection, and creation an individual can navigate life’s challenges, explore their meaning of self, and find empowerment in the therapeutic process. Whether addressing specific mental health issues, processing trauma, or simply improving emotional health, art therapy can be a powerful tool in promoting overall wellbeing. I have worked with individuals who live with anxiety, depression, autism, ADHD, and more. I currently have availability in the late mornings and afternoons. Please reach out if you would like to connect or if you have any questions!

Being in college or graduate school often means navigating big transitions, shifting relationships, academic pressure, identity exploration, and uncertainty about the future. You may look like you’re holding it together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or stuck on the inside. My role is not to “fix” you, but to help you reconnect with your own capacity to heal and grow. The coping strategies that helped you survive earlier seasons of life may no longer be serving you. In our work together, we’ll build on your existing strengths while developing new skills that support resilience, emotional regulation, and authentic self-trust. I have experience working in hospitals, schools, and in a university setting, and I specialize in working with survivors of trauma. My trauma-informed approach prioritizes safety and nervous system regulation first. We focus on building your ability to feel grounded and present before engaging in deeper trauma processing, and healing does not require you to relive or recount everything before you’re ready. Starting therapy, especially with a new provider, can feel vulnerable. I aim to create a space that feels steady, collaborative, and respectful of your pace. If you’re considering beginning therapy for the first time or returning after a break, I welcome the opportunity to talk and see if we’re a good fit. I provide teletherapy to clients 18+ across Colorado, and in person sessions in Longmont, CO. Due to a conflict of interest, I am unable to work with current students of the University of Colorado Boulder. Reach out by text, call, or message to schedule a consultation.

The problems and symptoms bringing you to seek therapy might be connected to things you wish never happened. This can be overwhelming to feel and vulnerable to invite another person to be with you. Deep down you may be hoping for change and eager for healing, but unsure of how to get it. I believe psychotherapy is a sacred process that can look underneath the surface and explore deeply-rooted issues to help create long lasting and significant change. My hope is to partner with you to help you understand yourself, deepen your relationships with others, and foster your healing journey. I take a psychodynamic approach to therapy, focusing on how emotional and relational experiences contribute to past and present suffering. My goal is to collaborate with you to help understand why you are hurting and help equip you to develop new ways of relating to yourself and others in order to find the relief and healing you want. Finding a therapist that is a right fit for you and your needs is important, most likely prompting your current search. I hope to gain your trust and partner with you to co-create a journey toward healing. Maybe the issues causing you to reach out for help are the start of that journey and the spark of hope for change.

My specialty is addiction and couples counseling. I also offer counseling for anxiety, depression and life transitions. Recovery from addiction is not straight forward. Different people need different solutions. I have experience in all realms of recovery. I can offer you a trusting, healing, judgment free space where you can be completely honest. I practice contemplative psychotherapy, which means you own and accept all parts of yourself. Once you see the complexity of your human experience, you can understand this complexities in others, clearing the way for letting go, and ultimate healing. If you are seeking a therapist who will honor your unique journey, respect your autonomy, and support your innate ability to heal, I would be honored to accompany you on your path towards growth, well-being, and self-discovery. Together, we can create a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and empowered to embrace the fullness of your authentic self.

I’m Ashton Mullee, and I'm here to support you as you navigate the unique challenges and exciting opportunities of your college journey. College is a time of incredible growth, but it often comes with a hefty dose of stress, uncertainty, and big life changes. You might be feeling the pressure of balancing demanding coursework, maintaining a social life, trying to figure out your career path, finding yourself, exploring sexuality, or struggling with relationship issues. It can feel overwhelming to keep all those balls in the air! If you are a student who is ready to gain clarity, develop practical coping skills for stress and anxiety, work through past traumas, and/or build a stronger sense of safety and self-confidence in your present life, you'll likely be a great fit for my practice. My goal is to create a space where you can finally slow down, understand how your past experiences may be affecting your current reactions, and learn how to move forward with greater ease and resilience.
