Ashley Schroeder

Ashley Schroeder is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and changes in their lives. Ashley aims to make starting therapy less daunting by offering a calm, nonjudgmental space to talk through hard emotions and decisions.

She commonly supports people dealing with relationship concerns and parenting strain, and she helps those wanting to boost self-esteem or find motivation. Ashley also addresses issues like ADHD, addiction, anger, and depression. She listens for what matters most and helps clients set small, practical goals.

Ashley uses straightforward approaches rather than jargon. Sessions often involve understanding current patterns, practicing different ways to respond, and building skills to handle day-to-day stressors. She draws on methods that focus on feelings, thought patterns, and clear problem solving to help people move forward.

People who choose her tend to want a collaborative, encouraging therapist who offers concrete steps. She balances being warm and direct so sessions feel useful and focused. The aim is to help clients feel more capable in their daily lives.

If someone is unsure where to begin, Ashley asks questions about goals and what life looks like now. That helps shape short-term plans and priorities so therapy fits into each person’s routine and needs.

Approaches to use in online counseling

Ashley integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and helping people find their own answers by reflecting feelings and priorities. CBT looks at unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches small, practical techniques to change reactions and behaviors.

She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy when relationships and attachment patterns are central. That approach helps people identify core emotions and try new ways of connecting or communicating with others. These methods are chosen to match the issues a person brings to sessions and to create steps that can be practiced between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative decision helps focus sessions and set clear, achievable aims.

Confirm current online session options before booking because formats are not specified in the profile. Many people appreciate online therapy for fitting sessions into a busy life, allowing therapy during work breaks, or reducing travel time. Online work can also make it easier to try brief check-ins or homework-focused sessions that support progress between appointments.
