About Ashly

Ashly Nicole Andersen is a Clinical Mental Health Therapist based in Arvada, Colorado, with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and an emphasis in Somatic Therapy. Her therapeutic approach is grounded in trauma-informed, nature-based practices and integrates somatic modalities to support clients in reconnecting with their bodies, emotions, and inner resilience.

Ashly brings a warm, grounded presence and offers a holistic lens to healing. She works with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, identity exploration, grief and loss, and the impacts of addiction. Her work is especially supportive for those seeking to process experiences on a deeper, body-based level or who are drawn to nature and animal-assisted interventions as part of their healing journey.

Ashly draws from somatic psychology, mindfulness, inner parts work, and nervous system regulation techniques. She is passionate about helping clients build emotional regulation, self-awareness, and a deeper connection to themselves and their surroundings. She welcomes teens, adults, and parents into therapy and values creating inclusive, affirming spaces rooted in safety, curiosity, and compassion.
