I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) currently practicing as a Clinical Services Manager at Fraser’s collaboration with Minneapolis Public Schools. I manage two day treatment classrooms, supervise staff and maintain an outpatient caseload. Fraser is one of the largest providers for mental health services in Minnesota (children and adults) and recently became a CCBHC (Certified Community Behavior Health Clinic).
I am dedicated to working with individuals and families by supporting hope and growth through a family systems perspective and trauma informed care. As a counselor, I focus on wellness and what we can do to help you feel hopeful as we begin to change your story. My work stems from an attachment, developmental, and systems lens and how they impact functioning throughout one’s life. I find encouragement in working together to build from your personal strengths and resilience to help you heal and feel more connected to your environment and relationships.
I currently am a County Social Worker with Rice County Social Services providing children’s services in the areas of Child Protection, Child Welfare and the Parent Support Outreach Program. I have previously worked in the area of family reunification and adoption providing families with Family Group Services in Blue Earth, Nicollet, Sibley, Brown and Watonwan counties. Prior to that I have several years’ experience doing In-home Family Therapy and skills work. Many of the children I work with struggle with permanency and adoption issues.
My name is Ashley Krause. I am a Licensed Marriage and family Therapist at an outpatient clinic setting. I currently see and focus on transracial adoptees: kids, teens and adults.
