About Ashley
Ashley Becker is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Minnesota. She brings eight years of direct clinical experience and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, mood struggles, and life transitions. Ashley takes a calm, down-to-earth approach to working with each person.
Before moving into outpatient work, she spent time supporting people in hospital and community mental health settings. That background gave her practice with a wide range of mood and thought-related concerns, as well as substance use and trauma-related problems.
Background and approach
She has also led group therapy for several years. Ashley uses person-centered therapy to guide sessions. That means she listens first, helps people set their own goals, and works alongside them rather than directing every step.
She also brings tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to teach practical skills for managing strong emotions and unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas appear in her work too. These techniques help people notice difficult feelings without getting overwhelmed and take concrete actions tied to personal values.
Motivational interviewing is used when people want to change habits but feel stuck. Sessions are conversational, straightforward, and occasionally lighthearted when it fits. Ashley aims to help people build skills, reduce reactivity, and make steady progress toward goals.
She works in English and meets with people in Minnesota through a range of online session formats.

How Ashley blends approach and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take action even when feelings are hard. It focuses on commitment to values and small behavior changes rather than trying to eliminate uncomfortable thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches specific strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful routines. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal communication.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Ashley listens to each person's goals and tries different techniques to see what fits. She will work together with clients to adjust methods over time so the therapy matches their needs and preferences.
Online sessions let people use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging depending on what works best for them. Video sessions are good for face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief processing, or when someone needs flexibility during a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and other routines.
