About Ashley
Ashley Crockham, LCSW, offers a calm and practical approach to therapy. She creates a welcoming space where people can talk through hard moments and learn tools to cope. Ashley aims to help clients feel heard and move toward steady, manageable change.
Ashley uses straightforward, evidence-based techniques to address anxiety, stress, depression, grief, and related concerns. She focuses on identifying strengths and building simple skills that fit into day-to-day life. Sessions emphasize clear goals and step-by-step progress rather than jargon or flashy techniques.
Before earning her social work degree, Ashley spent six years working in community social services, including work related to domestic violence and child protective services. She has four years of experience as a social worker, bringing practical experience with crisis-related issues and ongoing life stressors. That background informs how she supports people through difficult transitions and emotional challenges.
Initial sessions concentrate on understanding what matters most to the client, reviewing history, and setting realistic goals. Treatment plans are developed together and adjusted as progress is made. Ashley draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Strengths-Based Therapy, and Grief Therapy to help people understand thoughts and behaviors and build workable coping strategies.
People who come for help with panic disorder and panic attacks, mood concerns, parenting stress, or relationship issues will find a direct and compassionate style. Ashley works from Louisiana and communicates in English, and she accepts international clients when that is appropriate for care and scheduling.
