Ashley uses approaches that emphasize the person at the center of care while also drawing on practical strategies. She blends Client-Centered Therapy with cognitive behavioral tools and solution-focused ideas to help people set small, useful goals. Conversations often lead to clearer boundaries, better coping skills, and steps toward more balance.
Her practice aims to make change feel doable rather than overwhelming. She keeps work straightforward and based on each person’s needs. Ashley has six years of clinical experience and holds the credentials LMHC and LPC.
Clients looking to begin can expect a collaborative process that emphasizes listening first, then working together on concrete plans. She operates out of New York and conducts sessions in English.
How her approaches guide online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. It gives people space to talk through what matters most and helps a therapist respond to each person’s pace and priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior. It breaks problems into manageable parts and offers practical tools for anxiety, low mood, and stress-related symptoms.
Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, concrete steps and short-term goals. It helps people identify what will make a difference soon and try specific actions to move forward.
Finding the right approach is part of working together. The therapist will listen first, then suggest which approaches fit the person’s goals and preferences. That choice is made collaboratively and can change as progress is made.
Confirm the session formats available before booking so they meet your needs. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about scheduling and how to structure sessions to match your routine.
