Ashley Jaggi-Hansen

Ashley Jaggi-Hansen is an LCSW - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - practicing in Utah with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, self-esteem struggles, grief, depression, addiction, relationship and family concerns, and people coping with life changes. She also lists coaching as a focus. Ashley frames therapy as a collaborative process. She treats people as the experts on their own lives and helps them set clear, practical goals. Sessions emphasize concrete tools and steps clients can use outside of appointments. Her background includes undergraduate study at Brigham Young University and a Master of Social Work from the University of Utah. Ashley has worked as a mental health therapist for five years and combines clinical work with coaching skills. She uses several therapeutic approaches to match a person’s needs. Examples named in her biography include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. These methods inform how she helps with symptoms, patterns, and coping strategies. Ashley notes practical scheduling preferences and family life. She mentions generally available times during the week and that she is a parent of three. She recommends using the site matching process to schedule a first session and to confirm session timing and format before booking.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and guides clients toward values-based actions. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and feeling uncertain about life direction.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and replacing them with practical alternatives. It is useful for depression, anxiety, and coping with change.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is described in her biography as one of the approaches she uses; it focuses on processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional intensity, which can help people who have experienced abuse or other trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ashley will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try based on goals, needs, and preferences. That decision can change as therapy progresses and is checked in on regularly.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow a shorter check-in on a break from work, or let someone choose a session that does not require being on camera. Use the site matching questionnaire to view current options and schedule your first appointment.
