About Ashlyn
Ashlyn La Rose is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Colorado with four years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, addictions, and compassion fatigue. Ashlyn speaks English and works with adults seeking practical support and coping strategies.
Ashlyn uses clear, goal-oriented sessions to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with client-centered and solution-focused techniques to create short-term plans and skills people can try between sessions. Sessions often include step-by-step practice of new ways to respond to difficult feelings.
Her work also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Motivational Interviewing when motivation or emotion regulation are central concerns. For trauma-related issues she applies trauma-focused principles alongside safety planning and grounding skills. She pays attention to stress that comes from disasters, loss, or major life shifts.
Ashlyn has experience addressing addiction-related problems, including drug and alcohol addiction, impulsivity, and compulsive behaviors. She helps people track triggers, develop alternative coping skills, and set realistic short-term goals. She also supports those dealing with guilt, shame, isolation, and midlife or postpartum changes.

Therapeutic approaches used during online sessions
Ashlyn commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods to structure online work. CBT focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and building concrete skills to change behaviors, which can help with anxiety, panic, mood issues, and stress. Client-centered methods prioritize the person’s perspective and use active listening to clarify goals and values.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies when emotion regulation or impulsivity are central concerns. DBT techniques include skills for distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which are useful for intense emotions and impulsive actions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. Ashlyn will work with the person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That can mean trying focused CBT exercises for a few weeks, then adding DBT skills or motivational interviewing to build momentum.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, school, and caregiving. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, depending on available formats. Licensed professionals can adapt homework, skill practice, and brief coaching to everyday life.
