About Ashlyn

Ashlyn La Rose is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Colorado who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, and compassion fatigue.

Background and approach

She also works with a range of related concerns including panic attacks, mood and personality disorders, postpartum depression, dissociation, and issues arising after natural or human-caused disasters. Ashlyn combines practical symptom-focused work with attention to safety and stabilization when trauma is present.

Her style blends client-centered listening with solution-focused planning, helping clients identify small, achievable steps toward change while honoring where they are in the moment. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to teach skills for managing emotions, reducing distress, and changing unhelpful thinking patterns.

Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused strategies are also used to support readiness and goal-setting. With four years of clinical experience, Ashlyn aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space for exploring difficult feelings and building practical coping tools.

She practices under the Colorado credential CO LCSW CSW.09930562 and offers multiple session formats to accommodate different needs and schedules.

How evidence-informed methods translate to online support

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression; in online sessions this often involves practical exercises, thought records, and behavioral experiments tailored to daily life. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and validation, creating a collaborative space where the client's priorities guide the work and personal strengths are highlighted. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be practiced and reinforced between sessions to manage intense feelings and impulsivity.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to explore needs, goals, and preferences and may integrate techniques from these approaches to create a personalized plan. That flexibility helps ensure sessions focus on what matters most to the client while adapting methods as progress is made.

Online therapy with Ashlyn is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility around work, caregiving, and geographic limitations. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to practice skills in the settings where challenges actually occur, supporting consistent progress across daily life.
