Hi, I’m Ashleigh Draper. I’m a trauma informed therapist and EMDR therapist based in Gilbert, Arizona, serving clients in Mesa, Queen Creek, Chandler, and Apache Junction. I also provide virtual therapy anywhere in the state of Arizona, making trauma counseling and EMDR therapy accessible no matter where you are located.

I didn’t become a counselor because life was perfectly neat and tidy. I know what it feels like to carry hard stories, wrestle with self doubt, and question whether healing is possible. That lived experience fuels my belief that no one should have to face pain alone and that meaningful healing can happen with the right support.

I specialize in trauma therapy, EMDR, anxiety treatment, relationship healing, and Christian counseling when requested. I work with teens, adults, and couples who are ready to move beyond surviving and begin truly healing.

My approach is trauma informed, relational, and practical. I integrate evidence based therapies including EMDR, CBT, DBT, attachment focused interventions, and mindfulness. I create a safe and grounded space while also offering real tools, insight, and gentle accountability that support lasting growth.

Outside the therapy room, I’m a wife and mom of five who believes coffee and laughter are essential. I bring that same authenticity into every session because therapy should feel human, supportive, and hopeful.

If you are searching for trauma therapy in Gilbert or virtual EMDR therapy anywhere in Arizona, I would be honored to walk alongside you in your healing journey.
