About Ashley

Ashley King is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people navigate major life changes and tough emotions. She brings eight years of experience and a direct, compassionate style to sessions. Many people come for help with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or the challenge of starting over. Ashley aims to meet each person where they are and build from there.

Ashley uses simple, practical methods in session. She listens without judgment and helps clients set concrete goals. When needed she draws on cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thoughts and on solution-focused steps to try small changes between meetings.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Ashley uses client-centered therapy to prioritize each person's concerns and pace. That approach focuses on listening closely and responding to what matters most to the client, helpful for people facing grief, life changes, or burnout.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts and actions shape feelings. CBT offers concrete strategies for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns, such as testing worries and building small behavioral changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ashley will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then shape sessions collaboratively so they match each person's needs.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session options before booking. The practical benefits of remote therapy can include easier scheduling around work or family, shorter check-in conversations when needed, and avoiding travel time so therapy fits into busy days. Ashley can help decide how to use online work to support steady progress and real-world changes.
