Ashley Bennett, LISW

Ashley Bennett is a Licensed Independent Social Worker with six years of clinical experience in Ohio. She began with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and completed a Master of Social Work at The Ohio State University. Ashley focuses on practical help for people who feel overwhelmed and need clear steps forward.

Ashley uses straightforward conversation to learn what matters to each person. She listens for strengths and patterns that can be shifted. Sessions tend to include small, manageable goals that build confidence over time.

Ashley draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and attachment-based ideas alongside mindfulness and narrative approaches. She aims to combine practical strategies with attention to how past experiences shape current reactions. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are used to clarify goals and boost momentum.

Ashley frames therapy as a collaboration. She helps people set small steps, try new behaviors, and notice what works. The focus is on usable changes that fit daily life, not on jargon or long homework assignments.

How therapy approaches work online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT often includes identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or stress. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to important relationship patterns from our past and how they shape present trust and closeness. It can help people understand hurtful repeats and find different ways to connect.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose or blend methods based on goals, comfort, and what has or hasn't helped before. That means trying things, checking how they land, and adjusting plans together rather than sticking to one fixed method.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video works well for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone is helpful when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins or step-by-step coaching. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep momentum between meetings.
