About Ashley

Ashley Jaggi-Hansen is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on family and parenting concerns and related stressors. She offers a straightforward, supportive style and helps people set clear goals. Ashley aims to give practical tools clients can use after sessions end, and she treats each person as the expert on their own life.

Her approach is warm and collaborative. She works with clients to build a personalized plan that includes goals and a timeline.

Background and approach

Ashley values sharing resources and teaching skills that make daily life easier. Ashley completed undergraduate studies at Brigham Young University and earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Utah. She holds an LCSW and has five years of experience in mental health work.

She also completed EMDR training and has a coaching certification. Sessions may include problem-solving, skill building, and exploring past experiences when relevant. She uses methods from acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and other evidence-informed approaches based on each person’s needs.

Ashley lives in Utah with her three children and enjoys getting outdoors in the West. Her schedule typically includes Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 9:30 to 3:00 Mountain Daylight Time, and she helps people understand next steps and practical options for care.

Therapeutic approaches for online family and parenting support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can help with stress, anxiety, and getting unstuck when life changes feel overwhelming.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect, and teaches practical steps to change patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and problems with coping and behavioral habits.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is an approach used to process traumatic memories so they feel less disruptive. It may be offered when past events are driving current distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ashley will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods based on their goals, history, and what feels most useful. That process is adapted over time as needs change.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are useful when video is not possible, and live chat or text-based messaging provide short-check ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to access help from home.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
