About Ashley
Ashley Brummett is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years of counseling experience and a longer background in social work. She practices from Kentucky and speaks English. Ashley approaches therapy with warmth and straightforward communication to help parents and individuals facing stress, grief, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges.
Ashley has worked across many settings including hospice and palliative care, inpatient hospital units, outpatient mental health clinics, long-term care, dialysis clinics, and child protection.
Background and approach
Those roles shaped her work with grief and bereavement, caregiver fatigue, adjustment to life changes, and chronic illness concerns. She describes her style as genuine and nonjudgmental. Sessions focus on listening, helping people name their needs, and pacing changes that feel manageable.
She is comfortable including Christian faith when clients want that perspective, and equally comfortable when they do not. Ashley uses practical methods such as client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral ideas, emotion-focused work, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. These approaches are used to address mood, worry, relationship strain, and parenting-related stress in clear, task-oriented ways.
Parents looking for steady support will find short-term tools and longer-term planning in her work. Conversations can include coping strategies, communication skills, handling caregiver responsibilities, and smoothing major life transitions. Ashley aims to help people feel more able to handle daily demands and family responsibilities.
Her background in social work and clinical experience with diverse care settings informs a grounded, realistic approach. She focuses on small changes that add up, and on helping each person move toward clearer priorities and fewer overwhelm moments.

Approach-focused online care to support parenting and life changes
Ashley often draws on client-centered therapy to ground sessions in active listening and the client’s own goals. This approach centers on understanding what matters most to the person seeking help and building a plan from there.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with practical skills. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and for coping with stressful parenting moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Ashley will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their situation, goals, and preferences. She adapts strategies over time based on what is helping and what needs adjustment.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing contact between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and caregiving routines, while offering consistent support from a licensed professional.
