Ashley uses practical, skills-focused approaches in sessions. She aims to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits and try different ways of responding.

Outside work she raises three children and spends free time exploring outdoor areas across the West. Her practice operates in Utah and sessions are conducted in English.
Using CBT and related approaches online
Many of Ashley's methods translate well to remote work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and shifting behaviors with concrete exercises. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by assigning small tasks to practice between sessions.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult feelings without being driven by them and then choose actions that align with personal values. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building a collaborative plan that reflects the client's priorities and goals.
Finding the best approach is part of the early work. Ashley will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made over time based on what works for the individual.
