About Ashley
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia and Mississippi with 11 years of experience, Ashley Whitfield focuses on stress, anxiety, parenting, depression, and related concerns. She works with people facing life changes, ADHD, relationship and family problems, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, self-esteem issues, career questions, bipolar concerns, and coaching needs. Ashley uses several practical therapy approaches to help people move forward.
Ashley has experience in schools, clinics, and community agencies. She has also been shaped by her role as a wife and mother of three, and by firsthand awareness of how complex trauma and systemic disadvantage affect families across generations. That background informs her interest in addressing family problems, communication issues, and the long-term effects of trauma.
Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), client-centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and existential ideas. In sessions she looks at current circumstances and behavior patterns to identify practical changes that feel achievable.
Ashley describes using Adlerian and behavioral ideas along with strategic, brief counseling strategies. She focuses on building healthier routines and responses. That can include skills for managing mood, anxiety, attention differences, and relationship stress.
She aims to help people break down barriers that get in the way of daily functioning and satisfaction. People who want concrete steps and behavioral strategies may find her style a close fit.

Therapeutic approaches you may use in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions that align with those values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life changes by teaching present-focused skills and committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing alternatives. CBT is commonly used for depression, anxiety, and mood regulation issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.
Confirm the specific session formats available before booking. The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into a busy day, shorter check-ins when needed, and fewer travel demands. Online work can make it easier to schedule around parenting, work, or school commitments while still using the same therapeutic techniques discussed above.
