About

Ashley Hayes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who practices in both Rhode Island and Massachusetts and brings eight years of clinical social work experience to her work.

She focuses on helping people navigate difficult life transitions, often supporting those living with serious illness, facing complex decisions, managing anxiety and depression, and coping with grief and loss.

As a recent cancer survivor who also works in an oncology clinic, she emphasizes a whole-health approach to care - attending to both the mind and the body to help clients restore balance.

Her therapeutic style is client-centered, strengths-based, and solution-focused. She supports clients in setting reasonable expectations and working toward goals they identify as meaningful.

Ashley places high value on the therapeutic relationship and aims for clients to feel heard and to hear themselves more clearly amid the noise of stress and worry. She helps people gain clarity and shift less helpful thinking patterns using mindfulness practices along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people ask whether therapy delivered online can really help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or adjusting to life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions. A key benefit is flexibility - you can meet with a therapist in the way that fits your life, whether by video, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it simpler to fit regular sessions into a busy schedule. Therapists offering online care are licensed professionals, and if you decide you would prefer a different therapeutic fit, you can change providers at any time.
