About Ashley
Dr. Ashley Ascherl Pechek brings 15 years of counseling experience to clients in Colorado and describes her practice as grounded in personalized, collaborative care.
Background and approach
She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who completed a master’s degree in Community Counseling and a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision, and she combines that academic background with years working in diverse clinical settings. Ashley favors an integrative, client-centered stance that emphasizes listening, validation, and a strong therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change.
Her work draws on practical techniques from cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused methods alongside trauma-informed perspectives, and she adapts interventions to each person’s needs. Ashley lists ADHD among her focus areas and also supports concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, grief, parenting challenges, career stress, compassion fatigue, and trauma.
She offers part-time counseling and balances clinical practice with a faculty role at an online counseling program, approaching each client with the goal of helping them better understand their experiences and move toward personal strengths and coping strategies.
Approaches That Translate Well to Online Therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person from their own perspective, offering empathy, acceptance, and support to help people explore feelings and build self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thought and behavior, teaching practical strategies to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress through skill-building and structured exercises. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and shift emotional responses in relationships to improve connection and intimacy; it is useful for working on relationship issues and emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is addressed collaboratively. The therapist will work with clients to choose or combine methods that match their goals, preferences, and presenting concerns so sessions feel tailored and purposeful rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online sessions are offered via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which allows flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care when life demands change and support steady progress through accessible, regular contact with a licensed professional.
