Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care Options

Ashley uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete skills for managing symptoms like anxiety and depression. CBT focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors to improve day-to-day functioning and emotional well-being.

Mindfulness therapy is used to teach present-moment awareness and stress reduction techniques that can aid with emotional regulation, chronic stress, and coping with life changes. Motivational interviewing supports clients who are considering change by exploring ambivalence and strengthening intrinsic motivation for healthier choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Ashley works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to determine which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, access care from home, and maintain continuity during transitions or mobility challenges.
