Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care
Ashley blends Narrative Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people reframe their stories and act in ways that match their values. Narrative work looks at the stories you tell about yourself and finds new, more helpful ways to tell them. ACT helps people notice thoughts and feelings without letting those experiences block meaningful action.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early and current relationships shape expectations and emotions. That approach is useful for people dealing with relationship strain, intimacy concerns, and trust issues. Together these approaches offer a mix of meaning-focused work and concrete skills. Ashley treats finding the best fit as a shared process. She talks with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past. Then she suggests approaches to try and adjusts the plan as work progresses. This keeps therapy responsive and personal.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow more face-to-face interaction, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, written reflection, or when someone needs flexible, on-the-go options. These choices make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
