Ashley Scher is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people through difficult life changes. She works with adults facing depression, anxiety, stress, substance use concerns, trauma, and relationship struggles.

Ashley has eight years of experience in varied settings, including foster care, psychiatric facilities, homeless services, and substance abuse programs. That background informs how she sees complex needs and practical barriers to change. She brings a steady, grounded presence to sessions.

People often come to her for help with grief, parenting stress, sleep problems, anger, mood disorders, ADHD, and issues around identity and self-worth.

Evidence-based methods and online care

Ashley draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize practical skills and understanding patterns. One common focus is building coping skills to manage anxiety, stress, and mood symptoms by practicing small, repeatable strategies between sessions. Another area is trauma-informed work that helps people process painful events while strengthening day-to-day functioning and safety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ashley partners with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals, life situation, and comfort level. That means adjusting pace, trying different exercises, and checking in together about what helps most.

If you are interested in online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can still guide skill-building, support coping with life changes, and help track progress even when sessions are not in person.
