Ashley Schroeder, LPC

Ashley Schroeder is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina with five years of experience. She focuses on practical help for everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, relationship tension, parenting strain, and low self-esteem. Ashley aims to make the first step feel manageable and supportive for people looking for change.

She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can say what they feel. Sessions emphasize listening first, then working together to find small, useful steps forward. Ashley uses straightforward tools to build confidence and motivation over time.

Her work often blends talking through patterns with hands-on strategies. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Emotionally-Focused ideas guide conversations about connection and feelings when relationships are strained.

Ashley also draws on the Gottman Method to improve communication and on Motivational Interviewing to help people find internal reasons to change. Client-Centered Therapy principles shape the tone so the client’s goals lead the work. She adapts methods to fit each person’s situation and pace.

Common concerns addressed include trauma, addictions, anger, career stress, coping with life changes, and issues like jealousy, attachment, or control. Ashley helps people break big problems into manageable steps and build skills they can use after sessions end.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Ashley uses Client-Centered Therapy to make sessions feel focused on the person's own goals and experiences. This approach means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to shape each meeting.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and try practical behavior changes. CBT works well for stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions because it targets what people think and do day to day.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and process strong emotions, especially during relationship struggles. It supports clearer communication and helps people understand their emotional responses in ordinary interactions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Ashley will work with clients to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She adapts techniques rather than sticking to a single method so the work fits the person.

Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for more flexible appointment times. For some people, remote meetings make weekly check-ins and focused skill practice simpler to maintain.
