Ashlie has been so helpful as I’ve navigated a lot of big changes in my life from an intense breakup, to family issues, to career changes, and all the emotions that go along with them. She makes me feel so heard and supported, and helps me to process a lot of the emotions I try to ignore. I can talk to her about anything and I know she will help me get through it and make choices that are right for me. Really can’t say enough good things about Ashlie, I am glad to have her on my team!

- LCSW
I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Indiana. I have been providing mental health services for 14 years. I have worked with men and women with a wide range of concerns including: depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief and loss, body image and relationship issues.
I am open to meeting with individuals through the traditional BetterHelp platform, working with couples via the Regain platform and/or counseling persons via the Pride platform. I am able to meet people right where they are. I am an LGBTQIA+ ally. The community is near and dear to my heart.
I have a great deal of experience treating persons that have been physically and/or emotionally abused.
My counseling approaches include the following: trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing and humanistic/client centered counseling. I also enjoy working with clients who prefer a faith centered counseling approach.
I pride myself on promoting a safe climate full of empathy and free of judgement.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
