Ashley Bennett , LISW

Ashley Bennett is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) practicing in Ohio with six years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the strains that come with parenting and family life. Ashley emphasizes a strengths-based view, believing clients are experts in their own stories and resources for change.

She listens for patterns that keep people stuck and works with them to try new ways of coping. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. People can expect clear options, short-term goals, and collaborative problem solving rather than vague advice.

Ashley draws on attachment-based ideas to understand relationship patterns and on cognitive behavioral tools to shift thoughts that feed worry and low mood. She also uses mindfulness practices to help with emotional regulation and narrative techniques to reframe painful life chapters.

Her practice includes a broad range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, body image and eating concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people facing adoption or foster care questions, abandonment and attachment wounds, blended family challenges, and relational control or commitment struggles.

Ashley aims to create a calm, respectful space where clients can try new behaviors and build resilience. She offers session formats that fit busy lives and meets people where they are in the moment.

Therapeutic approaches that translate online

Ashley draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up now and helps people build safer ways of relating.

She treats approach choice as a collaborative process. Clients and Ashley review goals, try approaches, and adjust based on what feels most useful. That process helps match techniques to concerns like parenting stress, relationship patterns, trauma responses, or body image struggles.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video suits deeper conversations and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows quick check-ins, and text messaging supports short on-the-go reflections or regular coaching-style contact. These options help people fit therapy into work, family, and caregiving routines while still working toward concrete change.
