Ashley Mason
Counselor/Therapist, CMHC, LMHC
I work with thoughtful women who have built careers, families, and lives that look “put together” on the outside but quietly carry the old wounds of growing up with critical, narcissistic, or emotionally unavailable mothers. Even now, after all they’ve accomplished, many of my clients find themselves wrestling with guilt, people-pleasing, and an unshakable sense of never being enough.
My approach draws from 20 years of psychoanalytic training, finely tuned listening, and a spacious, non-intrusive presence. Together, we explore the hidden patterns that keep them stuck — the echoes of a mother’s voice that still shape their self-worth and choices — and create room for their own true voice to emerge.
Through this deeper work, my clients learn to set boundaries without collapse, let go of guilt that never belonged to them, and cultivate trust in themselves. The outcome is not just external success, but something more profound: the freedom to live authentically, with peace, confidence, and a genuine sense of being at home within themselves.

Allyson Eggleton with Beacon Therapy of Utah
Pre-Licensed Professional, CSW
I believe we all hold the capacity to heal within ourselves—sometimes it just takes the right space and support to uncover it. My work is grounded in empathy and curiosity, creating a space to explore the emotions, thoughts, and patterns that shape your experiences. Together, we’ll identify your values, build confidence, and develop coping skills and self-trust that support lasting healing and balance. My practice supports individuals of all ages, with a special focus on helping adolescents and young adults navigate transitions, strengthen self-esteem, and develop a clearer sense of self.
As a therapist and former Division I athlete, I understand the desire to grow while carrying life’s many demands. I’m also passionate about working with athletes as they explore the connection between performance, identity, and mental health, drawing on my own experience with the pressures of striving for excellence—on and off the field, water, rink, etc.
Outside of therapy, I coach high school rowing and find meaning in helping athletes strengthen both body and mind. As a native New Englander, time in nature grounds me, and thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail in 2022 deepened my appreciation for resilience, presence, and the quiet power of taking things one step at a time.

Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Hi! I am a clinical psychologist (PhD) trained at Penn State and the University of Pennsylvania. Though I treat a number of conditions (e.g., anxiety, depression, trauma), I have a great deal of experience helping people with personality disorders, sleep disorders, rare/unusual psychological conditions, and clinical problems which have been formerly resistant to treatment. Along with my practice, I stay active in the field through research, publications (i.e., books and articles), and other professional work. I particularly enjoy living lectures for popular science organizations in the US and abroad. Please visit my website (linked below) for more information.
