Who We Are And What We Do
Fishtown Wellness Center / Ashley Lagrange

Ashley Lagrange

M.Ed

Pre-licensed Professional Counselor

My name is Ashley Lagrange. I hold a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology from Temple University in Philadelphia, PA and am also a certified K-12 School Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I have experience with a combination of youth work and school-based counseling, as well as with Queer and Trans Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (QTBIPoC) population.

As a therapist, I work mostly with transitional age youth (16-24) and up and the LGBTQIA+ community. My therapeutic approach uses a humanistic and ecological approach to discuss topics like: depression, anxiety, racial trauma, gender identity, sexual orientation, grief, and ableism.

As a clinician, I seek to guide and hold space for folks as they go through their own journey towards self-awareness, accountability, and actualization. For example, I adapt to each client’s capacity, but frequently provide homework or encourage extra work outside sessions for the client to further engage with the work.  Above all, I like to remind clients that therapy can be adapted to what honors their individual experience, energy, and emotions.
