Approaches and Online Therapy Options

Dr. Ashley Schneider uses evidence-informed approaches to guide work with clients. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental space where the client’s perspective leads the conversation and goals; it is helpful for building self-understanding and improving relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that supports people who are ambivalent about change, often used for issues like addiction or lifestyle adjustments.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Schneider collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time so the work stays aligned with what is most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing clients to access licensed professionals from locations that suit them. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, and other commitments while maintaining continuity of care.
