About Ashley
Ashley Pierce is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Texas who brings three years of clinical experience and military background to her work.
Background and approach
She focuses on trauma, substance-related concerns, obsessive-compulsive patterns, grief and loss, anger, self-esteem, depression, and anxiety, offering compassionate support to people navigating these challenges. Her experience includes work with veterans and others affected by combat-related stress, and she uses evidence-informed methods to help clients build coping skills and find direction.
Pierce blends practical, skills-based strategies with attention to personal meaning and relationships. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Narrative Therapy to tailor treatment to each person’s needs.
Describing therapy as a sometimes difficult but worthwhile process, she emphasizes collaborative work and respects the courage it takes to begin. Prospective clients in Texas can expect a practitioner who values steady progress, real-world tools, and a supportive therapeutic relationship.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Ashley commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for depression, anxiety, OCD, and anger. She also employs Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support people in clarifying values, increasing psychological flexibility, and learning how to engage in meaningful actions despite difficult feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore relational patterns and improve emotional connection and safety within relationships.Deciding which method to use is part of the collaborative work between therapist and client. She will help assess needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend approaches or combine techniques to best fit the situation. This process is interactive and revisited as progress unfolds.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it possible to access care from home or other convenient locations in Texas. These formats allow for consistent follow-up, between-session support when appropriate, and easier scheduling for people balancing work, family, or other commitments.
