MY APPROACH
As an educator, I will provide gender-inclusive, medically accurate, culturally relevant education while empowering participants to learn in a non-judgmental space through an anti-oppression framework. Based on my professional codes of ethics, clients can also
expect the upmost confidentiality.
​
The personal, professional, and political beliefs I uphold in my practice permeate my work.
-
Sexuality education and quality health care are human rights.
-
Improving access to these rights requires an intersectional understanding of oppressive systems.
-
People deserve to live in a world free from violence, coercion, and manipulation.
-
Education is key to all movements towards liberation.
-
Patients are entitled to evidence-informed practice and care.
-
Patients are entitled to providers who affirm and actively support their identities.
-
Reproductive justice is inseparably linked to environmental, racial, and economic justice.
-
Black lives matter.

"This workshop was invigorating and educational. I appreciated the push to think about all aspects of identity learners bring into the room, and the challenge to acknowledge which aspects I am and am not comfortable addressing in sex education. Ashley was dynamic and clearly knowledgeable." - Sex Ed: More Than Just the Parts Workshop Participant
