About Ashley

Dr. Ashley Mitich blends attachment-based, Gottman-informed, and narrative approaches to help people address stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, depression, and ADHD.

Background and approach

As an Illinois licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with 14 years of experience, she centers clients' stories and strengths when exploring changes and challenges. Her work emphasizes collaborative discovery rather than one-size-fits-all solutions, helping clients identify patterns that affect intimacy, communication, and day-to-day functioning.

Dr. Mitich’s practice also attends to a range of related concerns such as grief, trauma and abuse, parenting and fatherhood issues, blended family dynamics, and sexual diversity including BDSM and kink.

She often weaves attachment perspectives with narrative techniques to reframe personal histories and uses principles from the Gottman Method to strengthen relational skills. Clients can expect a steady, strengths-focused therapist who recognizes the courage it takes to begin therapy and supports practical steps toward clearer goals.

Online Approaches That Build Connection and Story

Dr. Mitich uses attachment-based therapy to explore how early and current relationship patterns shape emotional responses and interpersonal needs; this approach is often helpful for people working on intimacy, communication, and family dynamics. She also draws on narrative therapy, which helps clients examine and re-author the stories they tell about themselves to create new perspectives and possibilities when coping with issues like depression, trauma, or life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she works collaboratively with each person to determine what methods fit their goals and preferences. Together they consider which strategies - whether relational skills from Gottman-informed work, attachment-focused interventions, or narrative techniques - will best support progress in therapy.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules or those who prefer remote sessions. These formats make it simpler to maintain continuity of care, try different ways of meeting, and access therapeutic support from Illinois without needing in-person visits.
