Explanation of Services

Ashley works with adults, and services are provided via telehealth. Ashley uses an eclectic blend of approaches* which are supported by thorough self-exploration and processing. Ashley likes to characterize her approach as a blend of science and creativity, with stages of therapy being a mix of insight- and skill-building. Ashley believes that simply talking about one’s problems is not enough to overcome the impact they can have on life and wellbeing. She encourages clients to "think like a scientist" when examining their struggles and behavior. The purpose is to investigate and find solutions to better handle distress. Ashley teaches skills that clients can use and integrate into habits so they may feel lasting relief. Clients can expect to leave session with increased knowledge (psychoeducation), new and thought-provoking insights, skills to prevent, resist, and manage challenging emotions, thoughts, and behavior, and homework to put skills into action.

Services

Counseling

Shorter-term therapy services to assist clients with problem-solving, coping skills, and exploring other perspectives on how to think about, manage, and navigate problems. Counseling services can include approaches like Solution-Focused Therapy [SFT], Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. Examples of issues that may bring one to counseling services include, but are not limited to: occupational difficulties or career transitions, life transitions and adjustments, anger management, generalized anxiety, miscommunication, and depression.

Art Therapy

An expressive therapy using creative methods to assist clients with processing and coping with emotions. Art therapy can be an adjunct service to provide an alternative way to process and navigate problems. No artistic experience needed! Art therapy is currently provided via telehealth. If interested in art therapy services, it is recommended to have at least a basic set of art materials (art paper, markers, colored pencils, a paint set, etc.) Issues that art therapy can be of benefit to are: anger management, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and posttraumatic stress disorder.

Psychotherapy

Longer-term therapy services aimed at helping clients process complex problems or mental health issues that are impacting multiple areas of their functioning. Psychotherapy involves a thorough level of processing to identify how life events have shaped one’s beliefs about self and others, as well as one’s emotional regulation, interpersonal, and distress tolerance skills. Individuals who may benefit from psychotherapy may be struggling with chronic mental health disorders, impulsive behavior, emotional or behavioral episodes or outbursts that may or may not be extreme, codependency, and posttraumatic stress disorder. Psychotherapy services include in-depth skills training and aim to thoroughly change one’s mindset, as well as emotional and behavioral experience to improve functioning and navigate life more adaptively.

Borderline Personality Disorder Services

Services include assessment and treatment for mild to moderate Borderline Personality Disorder. Borderline Personality Disorder services include management and treatment- with management focusing on reducing symptoms and behaviors and treatment focusing on reducing or eliminating traits associated with a borderline personality. Assessment includes identifying the severity of the disorder, which often affects one’s ability for management or treatment. The assessment process for Borderline Personality Disorder can take up to three sessions. Following assessment, severity will be identified, and based upon this, a referral to a Dialectical Behavior Therapy program clinic may be made prior to starting individual services for Borderline Personality Disorder. The referral is made based upon the clinical opinion of what type of treatment the client may benefit most from. Dialectical Behavior Therapy programs focus on management skills and include individual and group therapy at a more frequent, structured rate. Borderline Personality Disorder services would fall under psychotherapy, with treatment being longer term. A commitment is needed to begin Borderline Personality Disorder services and there are expectations of one’s participation to include a dedication to completing homework, using skills, and applying concepts outside of therapy sessions. Treatment for Borderline Personality Disorder is recommended at a frequency of twice weekly.
