About Ashley
Ashley Curtis is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor practicing in Kentucky with eight years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and career stress. She also works with people dealing with codependency, attachment struggles, and related patterns such as people-pleasing and difficulty saying no.
Ashley uses practical, evidence-based methods. She listens to what feels most urgent and helps people build everyday skills to manage strong emotions. Sessions often involve naming patterns, testing small changes, and practicing new ways of relating to others.
She draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and shift toward values-driven action. Attachment-based ideas guide work on closeness, trust, and fears of abandonment. Dialectical behavior therapy skills also appear when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.
In conversation she keeps things direct and clear. People leave with concrete practices they can try between sessions, not just ideas. The work often centers on boundary-setting, communication changes, and reducing the urge to put others’ needs ahead of one’s own.
Ashley welcomes people ready to look at patterns that keep them stuck. She will check in about goals and adjust strategies as progress happens. Her focus is on practical steps for everyday life, whether the concern is a stressed workplace, a painful relationship pattern, or past trauma that still affects day-to-day living.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Ashley commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy as starting points. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without fighting them, and then choosing actions that match what matters most. This approach is useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions about relationships.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of closeness and trust developed over time. It helps people recognize how early connection styles shape current relationships and supports learning new ways of relating that feel safer and more consistent.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Ashley collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their situation and goals. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques based on progress and feedback so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Confirm the specific online session formats before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to commute. Therapists can use phone or video approaches based on what helps someone concentrate, manage bandwidth, or keep sessions brief during a lunch break. These options help therapy fit into everyday life without promising a particular service.
