Accepting New Clients
Feeling like your mind doesn't slow down, no matter how hard you try? Maybe you're overwhelmed, burnt out, or stuck in patterns you're not sure how to step out of, or navigating ADHD, anxiety, grief, or chronic health challenges without knowing where to turn. Maybe you're trying to understand yourself more clearly, or figure out how to move forward in a way that actually feels sustainable.
Together, we can slow things down, build insight, and help you feel more grounded and confident day-to-day. We'll start with a free consultation call.
I work with individuals 16+ from diverse backgrounds, including 2SLGBTQA+ and neurodivergent communities, as well as those living with chronic illness or disability. Currently completing my Master's degree, I offer a space that is affirming, compassionate, and non-judgmental. Somewhere you can show up without the mask.
My approach draws on CBT, ACT, DBT, ERP, and trauma-informed, mindfulness-based practices. I support clients with anxiety, burnout, OCD and phobias, ADHD, grief, life transitions, women's health, and chronic health concerns. Sessions adapt to you, with a focus on connection, emotional regulation, and practical strategies that fit your real life.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counsellor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Life can feel so heavy when anxiety won’t let your mind rest, when fear wakes you at night, or when stress and self-doubt erode your confidence and faith. When burnout creeps in and relationships begin to crack, holding it all together can start to feel overwhelming.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand that weight. Our Christian counselors help young professionals, couples, and families find calm, rebuild trust, and walk in the peace Jesus promised—rather than performing under the pressures this world demands.
We integrate faith-based wisdom with evidence-based care, drawing from CBT, DBT, IFS, ACT, Gottman, EFT, Narrative Therapy, trauma-informed work, tapping, and breathwork. This combination helps you retrain your nervous system, heal emotional and spiritual wounds, and live with genuine peace.
Clients often come to us struggling with anxiety, insomnia, panic attacks, grief, burnout, relationship conflict, or a sense of spiritual disconnection. Here, you’ll find compassion, honesty, and practical tools to feel safe in your body and centered in your spirit again.
What we offer:
• Free consultations for new clients — relief can start now
• Same-week availability, including evenings (Mon–Thu until 8 p.m.)
• Sliding-scale rates for affordable care
• In-person, telehealth, or phone sessions
You don’t have to face the storm alone. There is calm on the other side—and together, we can find it.

Ashley Bargent Coaching & Counselling
Registered Social Worker, Associate Certified Coach, ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider MSW, RSW, ACC, ADHD-CCSP
Work is draining the joy from your life. Your confidence is dropping and you’re not sure about this career anymore. Every workday, it’s harder to get out of bed. You’ve considered changing jobs but are scared you’re the problem. The idea of change feels overwhelming because you overthink and don’t know where to start. You long for a job where your strengths will shine and you can live up to your potential. But you aren’t sure if you’ll ever find a place where you belong, especially if you’re grappling with ADHD.
