How Ashley's Approaches Work Online
Ashley uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-informed work which focuses on teaching concrete skills for distress tolerance, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. This approach helps people manage intense feelings and improve everyday interactions. Psychodynamic ideas are used to look at repeating patterns and where they come from, which can help make long-standing struggles easier to understand and change.Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Ashley will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to emphasize skill work, deeper exploration, or a mix of both, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a break.
