Behind The Velvet Mind

Ashlene Crichlow, MACP, R. Psych

Founder & Psychologist, The Velvet Mind

Welcome — I’m Ashlene. I created The Velvet Mind as a quiet, intentional space to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself beneath the noise. A place where you can feel seen, supported, and understood—without judgment or expectation.

My work weaves together logotherapy, solution-focused practice, and a multicultural lens, inviting both reflection and meaningful change. Together, we explore what brings depth, clarity, and purpose to your life—so you can move through challenges with confidence and calm.

Every session is crafted with presence and care. I work closely with a select number of clients to ensure a personalized experience—one that feels private, grounded, and deeply restorative.

The Experience

At The Velvet Mind, therapy is a quiet luxury — a space that holds what you don’t show the world. It’s where pace slows, noise fades, and you meet yourself with honesty and composure.

This isn’t about fixing. It’s about refinement — understanding your patterns, restoring balance, and returning to a sense of calm authority within yourself.

Conversations are grounded, discreet, and deeply human. The goal is simple: clarity that stays, steadiness that lasts, and a deeper connection to who you are when everything else falls away.
