I’m Ash Blanton
For years, my life motto was 'work harder and don’t ask for help.' I struggled with perfectionism, anxiety, and the overwhelming feeling of having to have it together all the time. I know how tough it can be to feel stuck and unsure of where to turn.
I became a therapist to help men like myself have a space where they could talk about the struggles they face and solve their problems by building on their strengths and skills.
My goal is to help you find solutions to life’s biggest problems, whether that’s gaining clarity about the future, overcoming destructive habits, or balancing relationships and responsibilities. You don’t have to navigate this season of life alone.

The Ember Counseling Difference
Relational
Therapy works best when we’re on the same team and connection is essential. I care about learning what you are interested in, whether it is music, sports, or art and incorporating them into therapy.
Experiential
Our experiences shape us. Talk therapy can be great and useful, however it more impactful to incorporate it into the real world. We work to make therapy an active process.
Solution-Focused
We want to give you the tools to use outside of the therapy office. When you leave, you’ll have a tool belt to navigate life’s challenges.

As is the case with other extensively trained and highly qualified therapists with many years of experience, I am not on any insurance panels and my clients pay privately for my services. This gives you several important advantages, including protecting your privacy (the insurance company does not have access to your diagnosis or what was discussed in our sessions) and control of our work together (you and I determine the length of therapy, what you want to cover in therapy, and the type of treatment that you find is effective and works, not the insurance company). This provides you with the best experience and services.
