Ashley Patton, LCSW
About me
Are you seeking support, understanding, and positive change in your life? I'm Ashley Patton, a dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Pennsylvania with a passion for guiding individuals on their journey towards mental and emotional well-being.
About Me:
I hold a Master's Degree in Social Work and have accumulated approximately eight years of experience providing compassionate and effective care to individuals in a range of populations and settings. My approach is client-centered, strengths-based, and rooted in evidence-based practices. I am an empathetic listener who is committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly.
Specializations:
My expertise includes but is not limited to anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, stress management, substance use disorders, and various forms of trauma. Ultimately, I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet your unique needs, combining modalities such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques.
Online Therapy:
Embracing the convenience of online therapy, I offer a secure and confidential virtual space for our sessions. Whether you're navigating challenges from the comfort of your home, or while managing a busy schedule, online therapy provides flexibility without compromising the quality of care.
What to Expect:
We will work collaboratively to identify goals, explore coping strategies, and foster personal growth. I believe in empowering individuals to harness their inner strengths and resilience. Together, we can build a foundation for positive change and emotional well-being.
Take the First Step:
Beginning your therapeutic journey is a courageous decision. If you're ready to take the first step towards healing and personal growth, I am here to support you.
Let's embark on a journey of self-discovery and transformation together.
Should you feel in need of urgent help or that you are in crisis at any time during our work together; please call 1-800-273-TALK 24 hours a day; or 988. This forum does not provide any type of emergency services, so I want to be sure you know who to contact if you need immediate help.
