01About Ashley
Ashley Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and struggles with addiction. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space to talk through what feels hard. Her approach aims to make small changes that fit daily life.
Ashley draws on six years of practical counseling experience. She blends client-centered work with evidence-based strategies to address things like self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, anger, and coping with life changes.
Background and approach
She also supports people facing issues tied to identity, grief, guilt, or shame. Her practice pays attention to attachment and how early relationships shape current patterns. That can look like mapping communication habits, spotting codependent dynamics, or building more satisfying connections.
For people dealing with addictions or first responder stress, sessions focus on workable tools and steady progress. Ashley also works with issues such as dissociation, dependent personality traits, disruptive mood dysregulation, and challenges related to gender and HIV/AIDS.
She uses a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emotionally focused ideas, and attachment-based work to tailor each plan. The goal is practical change rather than long talks without direction. Sessions focus on understanding emotions, learning coping skills, and setting realistic goals.
Prospective clients can reach out to ask questions and learn how the process might fit their life.

04Online support
Approach-focused care available online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication; it helps people change patterns that cause distance or conflict.Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made. This collaborative process helps clients learn skills that fit their daily routines.
Online therapy with this clinician can happen by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face-to-face when schedules allow, phone sessions are a good shorter option that uses less bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging make it easier to check in between longer sessions. These options add flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or travel while getting steady therapeutic support.
