About Ashley

Ashley Brummett is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of counseling experience and a longer history in social work. She draws on a broad background that includes hospice care, long-term care, inpatient and outpatient settings, and work with adults with cognitive disabilities. Ashley writes plainly and listens with warmth to help people name what matters to them and take small, clear steps forward.

Her style is direct and compassionate. She aims for honest conversation without judgment. Ashley says she will meet people where they are and can include her Christian perspective when it fits the client’s wishes. She balances empathy with practical ideas to address day-to-day struggles.

Ashley has supported people through grief, caregiver stress, and major life changes. She also works with anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, intimacy concerns, parenting strains, and compassion fatigue. Aging and geriatric issues are among her additional focus areas, and she has experience with end-of-life and hospice-related situations.

Clinically she uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral and emotionally-focused tools, with mindfulness and motivational interviewing woven in when helpful. Sessions tend to be conversational, goal-oriented, and paced to each person’s needs.

How Ashley’s approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person’s lead. It helps when someone needs space to be heard and to figure out their own priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses simple exercises to change patterns that cause distress. That approach is useful for anxiety, panic, and mood struggles. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and change how they respond in relationships. It’s helpful for improving communication and dealing with intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Ashley will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, values, and daily life. She adjusts pacing and techniques based on what is proving helpful during sessions.

Confirm session formats before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during evenings or weekends. Some formats are better for brief check-ins while others allow longer conversations or video interaction, so checking current options helps pick what works best.
