Ambrosia Spaulding

Hi, I’m Ambrosia! ?? First things first—therapy with me is not about sitting in a room (or on a screen) being judged, analyzed, or told what you should be doing with your life. I’m a big believer that **you are the expert on your life**. I’m simply here to help you sort through the stuff that has gotten complicated along the way. And sometimes…life gets complicated. Life be life-ing! You can be doing your best and still feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, exhausted, frustrated, or like you’ve somehow lost yourself in the process. You don’t have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Sometimes you just need a space where you can take off the mask, say what you’re really thinking, and figure out what comes next. That’s the kind of space I try to create. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, ADHD, OCD, relationship challenges, self-esteem, boundaries, stress, anger, and major life transitions. My style is relaxed, supportive, straightforward, and solution-focused. We can laugh in therapy. We can have uncomfortable conversations. We can celebrate your wins. And when needed, I may gently challenge you to look at something from a different perspective. I’m not interested in giving you a bunch of textbook answers that don’t fit your actual life. We’ll talk about what’s happening, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and find practical strategies that make sense for **you**. Most importantly, you don’t have to show up with the perfect words or know exactly what you want to work on. You can literally start with, *“I don’t even know where to begin.”* We’ll begin there. **Come as you are. Bring the real version of you. We’ll figure out the rest together.**
