Online support

How Ashley’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Ashley draws on existential ideas, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and client-centered listening to guide online sessions. Existential therapy looks at meaning, choice, and purpose and can help when life feels empty or confusing. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and values, then taking small committed steps toward what matters. Client-centered work emphasizes being heard and respected so problems can be discussed without judgment.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Ashley will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest approaches that fit. She works together with clients to try methods and adjust them based on what helps in day-to-day life.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video visits let people use body language and a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers no video. Live chat and text messaging allow quick check-ins, brief skills practice, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives.
