About Ashleigh
Ashleigh Brown is a BACP-registered therapist in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience. She works with young adults and others facing stress, anxiety, addiction recovery, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem issues and relationship concerns. Ashleigh also supports people dealing with career pressures, ADHD, grief and intimacy-related problems.
Her background includes study in counselling and psychology which informs how she explains thoughts and behaviours. Sessions tend to be straightforward and focused on practical steps clients can use between meetings. She offers a mix of talking, structured exercises and planning to help people manage symptoms and day-to-day challenges.
Ashleigh draws on a small set of well-known therapies. She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centred listening to suit each person. This means exploring values, changing unhelpful thinking patterns and using real-world experiments to test new ways of responding.
She pays attention to attachment patterns and relationship dynamics. That can look like mapping how early connections affect current relationships, and practising new communication skills. For people facing addiction or trauma, work often includes stabilising coping strategies before moving on to deeper processing.
Practical tasks are common between sessions. These might include short behavioural experiments, journalling prompts, or rehearsing conversations. Ashleigh accepts international clients and works in English. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and arrange a first session.
How Ashleigh uses different approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action. Online sessions using ACT often involve noticing unhelpful thoughts and designing small actions that fit a person's values, which can help with avoidance, anxiety and motivation issues.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. In remote work CBT is often practical: tracking patterns, testing unhelpful beliefs with short experiments, and learning specific coping skills for anxiety, low mood or sleep problems.
Client-Centred Therapy gives space for the person to lead the conversation while the therapist listens and reflects. That approach can help people who need time to name priorities, rebuild confidence and feel more certain about next steps.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Ashleigh will discuss what feels most useful and adjust methods based on a client's goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as therapy progresses.
The options for remote sessions are not listed in the biography, so please confirm formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around study or a first job, reduce travel time and allow quick check-ins between appointments. Some formats use less data or do not require video, which can suit quieter surroundings or a short break at work. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt pace and homework to suit an online rhythm.
