About Ashley

Ashley Burns is a licensed clinician in Montana who brings seven years of professional experience to her practice. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem. She also supports people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, family concerns, trauma and abuse, and women's issues.

Ashley aims to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk openly about what matters most to them. She listens for patterns in relationships and emotions, and helps people make small, practical changes that can ease daily pressure.

Background and approach

Sessions move at a steady, respectful pace and center the client’s priorities. Her background includes work with attachment issues and approaches that attend to how past experiences shape present feelings and behavior. Ashley draws on methods that help people understand different parts of themselves and how they interact.

This can help when emotions feel confusing or when old patterns keep repeating. Clients can expect straightforward conversation, gentle curiosity, and clear goals. Ashley works collaboratively to identify what to try between sessions and what progress looks like.

She keeps plans simple and practical so they fit into busy lives. If someone is new to therapy, Ashley offers guidance through the first steps. She explains what to expect, answers questions, and helps create a plan that aligns with each person’s values and day-to-day demands.

Online support

Attachment and Parts-Focused Therapy Online

Ashley uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current trust, closeness, and worry. That approach helps people notice patterns in how they connect and respond to others, which can ease relationship strain and family stress.

She also uses Internal Family Systems to help people identify the different parts inside themselves - for example a worried part, a protective part, or a shameful part. Working with those parts can make emotions feel less overwhelming and can improve self-esteem and decision-making.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ashley will talk with clients about their needs, goals, and preferences and together decide which methods to try. She takes a collaborative stance and adjusts methods based on what feels most helpful.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for a fuller conversational flow, phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera time is limited, and messaging or live chat can be a quick check-in or fit into short breaks. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while managing family, work, or school demands.
