She also uses emotionally-focused and solution-focused tools when they fit. That can mean mapping relationship patterns or identifying quick steps to reduce stress. Motivational interviewing principles help when making changes feels overwhelming.
Ashley has fifteen years of counseling experience and holds a doctorate in counselor education and supervision. She teaches in an online counseling program while providing part-time clinical care. Her background includes work with veteran and armed forces issues and support for people who have self-harmed.

04Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following each person’s needs. It helps people feel heard, build trust, and choose the pace of change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and uses practical exercises to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit, and adjust based on what helps most. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video allows visual cues and deeper conversation while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and keep momentum between sessions.
