Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Ashlie uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose values-based actions. ACT focuses on building willingness to experience feelings while moving toward what matters. She also relies on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teach concrete coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT sessions often include simple homework tasks to practice new habits between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She discusses different methods with each person and picks or blends approaches based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. That way the plan fits what the client wants to change and how they prefer to work.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for full sessions and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a brief check-in is needed. Chat and text messaging are helpful for short updates, skill coaching, or staying connected between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep continuity when travel or schedule changes occur.
