Ashley Buckner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
“Trauma therapy, with room for identity, grief, and later life”

Session languages: English
About Ashley
I'm a licensed clinical social worker. I offer trauma-focused therapy, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy is a central part of how I work with trauma. I have more than 16 years in behavioral health, with children, teenagers, adults, families, and complicated systems of care. I also specialize in LGBTQIA+ affirming and gender-affirming care.
I earned my Master of Social Work from Savannah State University in 2009. I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy. I work with aging, grief, caregiving, and the end of life.
I see children from about age 6, teenagers, adults, and older adults. People come for trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, addiction, family conflict, and the strain of caring for someone else. I'm accepting new clients. Sessions are online. I also offer clinical supervision and consultation for other clinicians, separate from therapy.
How Ashley works
Accelerated Resolution Therapy is the trauma method I use. It is meant to ease trauma responses without asking you to retell the experience in a way that overwhelms you, and you stay in control of the process. I also use cognitive behavioral therapy, family systems work, and other trauma-focused approaches.
With identity, I work in a way that affirms LGBTQIA+ and gender-diverse clients. With older adults and families, grief, caregiving, and the end of life are often part of the work. Sessions are online.
Approaches
General information from Kyan about each method, not a description of how Ashley works.
Trauma-focused therapy
Trauma-focused therapy is a family of approaches designed for the effects of frightening or overwhelming experiences. Usually the work starts with feeling safer and more stable, and only then turns to the memories themselves, at a pace you can manage. It can help with flashbacks, fear, numbness and other after-effects of trauma.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)
Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions keep each other going. Together you notice the patterns that hold a problem in place and try out new ways of thinking and acting, often with small practical tasks between sessions. It is widely used for anxiety, low mood, stress and sleep problems.
Systemic & family therapy
Systemic and family therapy looks at difficulties in the context of the relationships around you: your family, partner, work or friends. Patterns between people, rather than one person alone, become the focus of the work. It can be used with individuals, couples and whole families.
