Dr. Ashley Mondragon, Psy.D.

Dr. Ashley Mondragon earned her Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) from William Paterson University, where her education emphasized clinical, counseling, and applied psychology informed by evidence-based practices across diverse settings and populations. She works with adults across the lifespan with a particular interest in supporting older adults and those in caregiving roles as they navigate emotional, relational, and life transitions. Her clinical work commonly addresses anxiety, mood difficulties, adjustment concerns, health-related stressors, chronic pain, and interpersonal distress.

Her work with clients integrates acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and humanistic approaches, while considering interpersonal and systemic dynamics, blending practical tools with emotional exploration and insight. Her specialized training in neuropsychology provides a brain–behavior–informed perspective when relevant, particularly in the context of health-related changes or cognitive fluctuations, and supports collaboration with caregivers and family members to promote understanding and sustainable care. Dr. Mondragon aims to create a space that feels steady, engaged, and human; one where clients can slow things down, make sense of their experiences, and move forward with greater clarity and self-trust.
