Ashleigh Bruns, Ph.D.

Bio

Dr. Ashleigh Bruns has experience working with couples, children, adults, and groups with a variety of counseling needs, including depression, sexual abuse, addictions, anxiety, grief, marital distress, and adjustment issues. She has worked in diverse settings, including an inpatient psychiatric unit, a student counseling center, and a trauma-specialized private practice.

Seeing change as a multifaceted process that requires a holistic view of a person, Dr. Bruns takes into account the spiritual, physical, cognitive, and emotional makeup of an individual. With this in mind, she believes change happens through the use of researched therapeutic practices, God’s healing, and human connection and relationships. She also believes change takes time and cannot be forced, but that it occurs as a person desires to change.
