Getting to know Ashley Lynch
Hello! My name is Ashley Lynch and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Wisconsin. I have been working in the field of mental health since 2012 in various settings and roles. I approach clinical sessions with an empathetic disposition and make it my goal to meet my clients where they are at. It is my priority to make sure that I am offering a safe space to those who seek me out for counseling. In session, I work with my clients to set up a treatment plan that they feel comfortable with and establish goals that are attainable. My main areas of focus have been anxiety/panic attacks, depression, stress management, end of life/hospice/caregiving, self-esteem, women’s issues, fertility/pregnancy/postpartum, and grief.
In session, I incorporate combinations of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness techniques. Additionally, I like to provide psychoeducation to help the individuals I am working with better understand the symptoms they are experiencing. Lastly, there may be times when I incorporate laughter into a session when appropriate. I have found that this builds rapport, reduces stress and anxiety, changes perspective, and releases tension. It is an honor to walk alongside individuals as they navigate highs and lows of life and this is something I do not take lightly. I am happy to assist, support, and encourage!

What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
-Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit or you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be that person for you.
-Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goaand work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's alsimportant to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important o practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
