Ashley Major, LCSW

Approaches that guide online care

Ashley uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and on strengthening coping skills. One common approach helps people notice and challenge negative thinking patterns so anxiety and low mood become easier to manage. This method helps with worry, social anxiety, and self-critical thoughts.

Another practical focus teaches emotion regulation and anger management skills. That work includes learning how to pause before reacting, using breathing or grounding strategies, and practicing different ways to communicate needs. These skills are helpful for relationship tensions, parenting moments, and caregiver stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Ashley works together with clients to pick methods that match their goals, comfort level, and daily life. She adjusts pace and techniques as needed, so the work stays useful and realistic.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation for deeper work, while phone calls can fit a break at work or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick check-ins, tracking progress, or brief coaching between sessions. These flexible formats make it easier to fit regular therapy into a busy schedule.
