Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take steps toward a meaningful life even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present. It emphasizes practical actions and building psychological flexibility, which can help with trauma-related avoidance, mood struggles, and getting unstuck from unhelpful patterns.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships influence current connections and emotional responses. This approach can be useful for clients working through relational wounds, loneliness, or the interpersonal impacts of military service and trauma.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is often used to address anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, and problem-focused goals like anger management and coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Ashley collaborates with each person to determine which methods align best with their needs, goals, and preferences. She and the client work together to adjust strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with a licensed professional offers flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, receive support from home, and maintain continuity of care across different life demands.
