Are you seeking support, understanding, and positive change in your life? I'm Ashley Patton, a dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Pennsylvania with a passion for guiding individuals on their journey towards mental and emotional well-being.
About Me:
I hold a Master's Degree in Social Work and have accumulated approximately eight years of experience providing compassionate and effective care to individuals in a range of populations and settings. My approach is client-centered, strengths-based, and rooted in evidence-based practices. I am an empathetic listener who is committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly.
Specializations:
My expertise includes but is not limited to anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, stress management, substance use disorders, and various forms of trauma. Ultimately, I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet your unique needs, combining modalities such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques.
Online Therapy:
Embracing the convenience of online therapy, I offer a secure and confidential virtual space for our sessions. Whether you're navigating challenges from the comfort of your home, or while managing a busy schedule, online therapy provides flexibility without compromising the quality of care.
What to Expect:
We will work collaboratively to identify goals, explore coping strategies, and foster personal growth. I believe in empowering individuals to harness their inner strengths and resilience. Together, we can build a foundation for positive change and emotional well-being.
Take the First Step:
Beginning your therapeutic journey is a courageous decision. If you're ready to take the first step towards healing and personal growth, I am here to support you.
Let's embark on a journey of self-discovery and transformation together.
Should you feel in need of urgent help or that you are in crisis at any time during our work together; please call 1-800-273-TALK 24 hours a day; or 988. This forum does not provide any type of emergency services, so I want to be sure you know who to contact if you need immediate help.

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.
