About Ashley
Ashley earned a Master of Social Work from George Williams College in 2016 and has worked in mental health since 2012. Early work in group homes showed her the value of listening and simple conversation. That experience led her to clinical counseling and a desire to help people set realistic goals.
She has provided short-term therapy and crisis support for caregivers while interning at the Alzheimer's Association. Later roles included directing a senior care facility and offering clinical care to college-aged clients. These roles shaped her knowledge of hospice, end-of-life concerns, and caregiver strain.
In sessions Ashley aims to meet people where they are. She collaborates on treatment plans and picks goals that feel doable. Her typical focus areas include panic and anxiety, postpartum depression and pregnancy and childbirth related worries, self-esteem, motivation, grief, and life transitions.
Ashley uses several therapeutic approaches to guide work in session. She prefers clear, practical steps alongside space to reflect on meaning and connection. Clients can expect straightforward guidance and a steady, accepting approach to change.
How Ashley's Approaches Translate Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and choosing actions that reflect personal values. It helps people who feel stuck by teaching skills to accept hard feelings while moving toward a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and offers concrete strategies to change unhelpful habits. CBT can help with anxiety, panic, and low mood by teaching practical tools for daily life.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Ashley will work with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they’ll try techniques, review what helps, and adjust the plan as progress is seen.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people keep consistent appointments while balancing caregiving, work, school, or recovery from childbirth. A therapist can help decide how to shape sessions so they work for daily life and goals.
