About Ashley
Ashley Burns is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Montana. She brings seven years of counseling experience and focuses on practical help for parents and adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and low self-esteem. Her approach is warm and straightforward.
She invites people to take the first step and talk about what feels hardest right now. Ashley aims to make sessions feel open and nonjudgmental. She creates space for people to name emotions and try new ways of responding.
Background and approach
Conversations can cover parenting worries, past trauma, and the everyday pressures that drain energy and confidence. She uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also draws on Internal Family Systems to help people notice different parts of themselves and how they interact.
These methods are used to understand problems and test small, practical changes. In therapy with Ashley, expect clear goals and steady, calm guidance. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings and on gentle shifts in how you relate to others and yourself.
The tone is supportive, direct, and focused on real-life results. Ashley works with adults concerned about parenting, relationships, stress, depression, and trauma. Conversations are in English and offered through a range of online formats to fit busy schedules.

Attachment and Parts Work via Online Sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current patterns. It helps people see why they react a certain way in close relationships and offers ways to practice different responses.Internal Family Systems helps a person notice the different parts inside themselves - such as a critical part or a fearful part - and learn to relate to those parts with care. It can be useful for anxiety, low self-worth, and trauma responses.
Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist works together with the person to decide which methods feel most helpful based on their goals and preferences. That collaborative process can shift as needs change over time.
Online sessions make it easier to fit work into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, and text or live chat support shorter check-ins or ongoing reflection between appointments. These options offer flexibility so people can keep therapy steady alongside parenting, work, and other demands.
