Ashley is a 32-year-old, married, former engineer, and she is mother to two young children, ages 3 years and 11 months. Her therapist, an advanced practice registered nurse, recommended that she come for brief treatment of depression and anxiety at the partial hospitalization program. Ashley's depression and anxiety have been more severe since she stopped working. She feels inadequate and overwhelmed by her responsibilities, so her mother moved in with the young family at her daughter's request. Ashley bonded quickly with her case manager and psychiatrist, both older women. She frequently asks them for reassurance that she is doing the "right thing" by coming to treatment.
