About Ashley
Ashley Ligon is a licensed clinical mental health counselor in North Carolina. She brings 16 years of experience and a calm, straightforward manner to sessions. Parents worried about anger, anxiety, or behavior changes can expect a therapist who listens, offers clear guidance, and helps people find workable steps forward.
Ashley favors practical, strength-based care. She starts by listening to what matters most and helps people set realistic goals. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings, not just talking about problems.
Background and approach
Her work addresses stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, and anger. She also supports people facing relationship strain, intimacy concerns, communication problems, and life transitions such as divorce or career change. She helps with practical worries like money and workplace issues as well as emotional struggles like low self-esteem and compassion fatigue.
Ashley uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness tools. She may also draw on solution-focused ideas and motivational interviewing to encourage change. These approaches are adapted to each person’s needs rather than applied the same way to everyone.
Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire followed by scheduling a time that fits. Ashley aims to help people leave feeling more confident in their choices and relationships.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Ashley uses client-centered therapy to keep the focus on each person’s experience. That means sessions begin with listening to your priorities and shaping the work around your goals and pace. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thinking and builds practical skills to change behavior and reduce symptoms like anxiety or anger.She may also integrate mindfulness techniques to help with stress and emotional regulation, teaching short practices you can use between sessions. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Ashley works with each person to test what feels useful and adjusts methods based on needs, goals, and preferences rather than following a single formula.
Online therapy in her practice is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules and needs. Video lets you work face to face when that helps, while phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to get consistent care around work, family, and day-to-day life.
