I have been a patient for three years. Ashley helped me so much through the death of a parent and the dementia of another one. She gave me a lot of constructive help and helped me to find direction. I was in a really bad place before I went to see her and she helped me to understand my thoughts and behavior. If you are willing to put the hard work of changing she will help you a lot.
Ashley Repinski has a pleasent personality. But to many insecurities .And takes Therapy to a very weird and uncomfortable level. Inappropriate behavior not honest very deceptive . After year I found in a very weird way just Becareful .She may help someone someday just takes experience and Honestly and some all about me adjustments...
