Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care



Ashley integrates approaches that translate well to virtual formats, including Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness Therapy. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on strengthening relationships and emotional bonds by exploring patterns formed early in life - it can help families and individuals improve connection and trust. CBT is a practical, skills-oriented approach that helps people identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and anger. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple techniques to manage stress, regulate emotions, and increase resilience.

Determining the best approach is a collaborative process. Ashley works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and life context, and she adapts methods over time so therapy fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities. These options increase accessibility for people in different locations and allow therapists and clients to focus on practical, effective strategies in formats that suit each person’s needs.
