About Ashley
Ashley Kingston is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with six years of clinical experience. She supports adults who are struggling with anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and other life changes. Ashley emphasizes a respectful, person-centered way of working where the client’s experience leads the process.
Ashley earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a concentration in addiction and holds the LCPC credential. She uses real-world tools and practices rather than jargon, and she aims to help people reconnect with their own sense of self and values.
Her sessions blend talk therapy with body-focused practices when helpful. That can include breathwork, gentle movement, grounding techniques, and mindfulness exercises alongside cognitive and behavioral strategies. The goal is to help people notice how thoughts, feelings, and the body link together and to build practical coping skills.
Ashley describes therapy as a collaborative process. She listens first, then works with each person to set clear, achievable goals and steps. She adapts pace and techniques to match what each person needs in the moment.
She provides online counseling and offers live audio and live chat sessions arranged in advance. People who are exploring help for panic, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, addiction-related concerns, or life transitions may find her approach practical and grounded.
Approaches that guide online work and what to expect
Attachment-based work focuses on how relationships shape feelings and behavior. It helps people notice patterns from past relationships and try new ways of relating in the present. Client-centered therapy puts the person's experience first and emphasizes empathy, listening, and collaboration to help clients find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test them with practical exercises to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Ashley will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods as therapy progresses. This is a collaborative effort rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Ashley provides online counseling with scheduled live audio and live chat sessions arranged in advance. Please confirm which session formats are available when you book. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow check-ins that are shorter when needed, and remove the need to travel to an office. Working online still lets therapists use skill-building exercises, guided breathwork, grounding practices, and thought-challenging tools to address panic, anxiety, stress, and related concerns.
