About Ashley
Ashley Foster is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. She writes plainly and listens closely to understand what is most overwhelming right now. Sessions emphasize practical skills you can use between meetings.
Ashley aims to help people feel steadier and more in control of day-to-day life. Ashley has nine years of clinical experience. She works with a broad range of concerns including substance use, dissociation, domestic violence, eating and food-related issues, and mood dysregulation.
How Ashley works
She also addresses attachment-related struggles such as abandonment, codependency, avoidant or dependent personality patterns, and problems with commitment and communication. Her style is collaborative. She and the person meeting with her set clear, step-by-step goals and track progress over time.
Therapy combines mindfulness-based skill building with practical techniques for managing strong emotions and tolerating distress. Sessions focus on building emotional awareness, setting boundaries, and improving interpersonal skills. Ashley helps people practice concrete tools in session and at home.
That may include breathing and grounding exercises, role-playing difficult conversations, or breaking larger goals into smaller tasks. The work aims to reduce overwhelming feelings and increase everyday functioning. People who are looking for straightforward, skills-focused support may find her approach useful.
She offers multiple online session formats and works in English. Prospective clients will complete a short matching questionnaire to begin the process.

Online support options
Evidence-based skills and flexible online care
Many of Ashley's sessions use mindfulness-informed techniques that teach clients how to notice thoughts and feelings without becoming overwhelmed. These exercises help reduce reactivity and build steady attention in daily life, which can be useful for anxiety, trauma symptoms, and emotional ups and downs.She also emphasizes distress-tolerance and emotion-regulation strategies. That work shows people concrete ways to ride out intense feelings, reduce impulsive reactions, and improve mood stability. Practical tools include grounding, paced breathing, and step-by-step problem solving for strong emotions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ashley takes a collaborative stance and will help figure out which techniques match a person's goals, needs, and preferences. Together they set clear objectives and adjust methods based on what helps in real life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different schedules and situations. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and skills practice, phone can be useful when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can support brief check-ins or written exercises between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and continue skill-building without traveling.
