Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Burleson, TX 76028
Some methods I use include Trauma Focused- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Based Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Relational Therapy.
Hello, I'm Ashley Lott. Are you looking to be a better version of yourself? I am here to help with that. I have over 10 years of experience in this field, paired with a passion for helping people. My journey has lead me to realize how unhealthy and dysfunctional some relationships can be, and may of us have tolerated them for awhile. Maybe you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or another mental health struggle? I've vowed to change my life and decided to direct my energy towards helping others figure out, very strategically, how to do so for themselves.

Change is never easy—especially when it involves divorce, co-parenting, or blending families. These transitions can deeply affect not only individuals, but also children, parents, and even grandparents.

As a therapist, I specialize in supporting individuals and families facing divorce, parental alienation, abandonment, and the complexities of blended family dynamics. I work with adults and children on creating a clear, actionable path toward the future they want and find the tools they need to grow, heal, and thrive.

Hey friend, are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or depressed? Maybe you feel unseen, misunderstood, or disconnected. Many of my clients are navigating the pressures of work, family, and unrealistic expectations, leading to burnout and overwhelm. If you're dealing with ADHD, Autism within your family, depression, or hormonal changes, these challenges can feel even more intense. You might find it difficult to stay focused, regulate emotions, or create change—despite knowing what you want your life to look like. The good news is: it is possible to change these feelings.

I tailor therapy to each individual, drawing from evidence-based approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ( ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT), with a strong foundation in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
Rather than trying to eliminate thoughts and emotions, we will focus on developing a more flexible, empowered relationship with them. Through this process, you’ll build practical skills to navigate intense emotions, respond to challenges with confidence, and take committed action toward a fulfilling life.

I bring a person-centered approach blended with ACT and DBT to support anxiety, depression, trauma, and LGBTQIA concerns.
Are you carrying pain that others can’t see. You may feel alone, stuck in cycles of anxiety, shame, or relationship struggles that keep repeating. Often these patterns begin in environments where emotional needs weren’t fully seen or supported, leaving you in survival mode, overthinking, shutting down, or doubting yourself. Therapy can be a space to understand these patterns with compassion rather than judgment. I help adults explore the roots of these experiences and reconnect with their sense of self so they can move toward greater clarity, balance, and authenticity. I am here to help you through this in a safe space.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists
How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.

What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?
The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.

Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?
Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.

How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?
A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
