Ashley Longabaugh-Cantos

Ashley Longabaugh-Cantos, FL LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) MH25385, is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Florida with six years of clinical experience. She works with children, teens, adults, and families, offering support across a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, grief and loss, depression, and navigating major life changes.

She also has focused experience addressing trauma, eating disorders, intimate partner violence, non-suicidal self-injury, and women’s issues such as fertility-related concerns. As a female therapist who identifies as non-religious, she aims to provide a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and valued.

Drawing on extensive work with people emerging from difficult circumstances, Ashley understands the search for purpose and belonging that often follows major transitions. As a military spouse who lived overseas for two years, she appreciates the unique stresses of significant life changes and the resilience required to move forward.

Ashley believes in the healing value of humor and often uses lightness to ease challenging moments. She is an animal lover, and clients may occasionally meet one of her furry co-therapists, Hugo, Clive, or Maxine, who sometimes pop in to say hello.

She welcomes those seeking guidance and support and is prepared to work collaboratively to identify practical coping strategies and goals. Ashley invites prospective clients to reach out with questions or to begin the process when they are ready.
