Ashley Jaggi-Hansen, LCSW

Ashley Jaggi-Hansen is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. She speaks plainly and works with clients to set clear, achievable goals. Her approach aims to leave clients with tools they can use after therapy ends.

Ashley focuses on practical steps people can take between sessions. She listens first, then helps create a plan that fits each person’s needs and schedule. Sessions often include skill practice, behavior-focused strategies, and ways to change unhelpful thinking patterns.

She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and client-centered methods to shape treatment. Those methods are used together to help with mood, relationships, self-esteem, and coping after loss or trauma.

Ashley has five years of experience as a mental health therapist and holds a Master of Social Work from the University of Utah. She also completed undergraduate studies at Brigham Young University and has a coaching credential that informs her goal-focused work.

She practices from Utah and offers sessions in English. Ashley emphasizes collaboration and tends to build a timeline and clear objectives with each person. Her style is warm and practical, aimed at helping people regain steadiness and move toward their goals.

How evidence-based methods meet flexible online care

The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments. It is often used to address anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete skills for changing thoughts and behaviors.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It can be useful for coping with life changes, chronic stress, and problems that feel stuck by building willingness rather than fighting emotions.

Client-centered therapy centers on listening and responding to each person's experience so they feel heard and understood. That groundwork helps people explore goals, clarify values, and try practical steps between sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That plan can change over time as progress is reviewed together.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy lives. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, family, and daily routines.
