About Ashley
Ashley Curtis is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Kentucky with eight years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, and career stress. She also focuses on issues like abandonment, attachment struggles, body image, codependency, and coping after disaster.
Ashley uses straightforward, skills-based methods. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and reactions and trying practical alternatives. She works with clients to improve communication and address commitment or control issues that undermine relationships.
Clients can expect clear strategies for emotion regulation and behavior change. Ashley draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based methods, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered techniques. These are used to help people reduce anxiety, manage shame and guilt, and rebuild trust after separation or loss.
She prioritizes planning small, manageable steps for everyday life. That might include short behavioral experiments, communication rehearsals, or grounding skills for dissociation. The therapist also supports people facing first responder stress, co-morbid conditions, and dependent personality concerns.
Ashley guides people through decision points like divorce or career transitions with concrete options and next steps. To begin, she asks about immediate problems and what someone hopes to change, then frames a practical plan for sessions.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. It focuses on short practical exercises and behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches skills to notice difficult emotions and choose actions that reflect personal values, which can help with chronic worry and meaning-related concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early attachment experiences shape current responses; it is useful for intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and communication problems.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Ashley will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make sense based on their goals, needs, and preferences. That process can include trying a few techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is observed.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports practicing skills in real-life settings and then discussing how those attempts went in the next session.
