About
Ashley Capone, LMHC, is a New York-based therapist with 8 years of experience supporting people who feel low, stuck, or unsure why motivation has disappeared. When emotions feel confusing or overwhelming, it can be difficult to know what to ask for - and that uncertainty can spill into relationships, leaving loved ones unsure how to help. Ashley works with clients to better understand emotional patterns, build coping strategies that feel manageable, and communicate needs in ways others can genuinely hear and respond to.
Ashley provides DBT-informed therapy, drawing from Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills such as distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and mindfulness. These tools can help clients navigate intense feelings, reduce the overall intensity of emotional swings over time, advocate for themselves more effectively, and stay grounded in the present moment when stress rises.
Ashley also incorporates principles of feminist therapy, recognizing how systemic oppression can shape daily stress, self-worth, and the practical ability to meet therapy goals. With a patient, collaborative style, Ashley focuses on identifying what can be changed while also building space for acceptance around what cannot, helping clients strengthen both emotional steadiness and connection in their relationships.

DBT Skills and Insight, Designed for Online Support
Ashley Capone, LMHC, uses a DBT-informed approach that focuses on practical skills you can apply in daily life. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes tools like mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness - helpful when emotions feel intense, relationships feel strained, or stress is hard to manage.Ashley also draws from psychodynamic therapy, which looks at how earlier experiences and recurring patterns can shape present-day feelings, reactions, and relationships. For clients who want deeper insight into why certain situations feel triggering or familiar, this approach can bring clarity and new options for change. Trauma-focused therapy principles may also be used to help clients build steadiness and coping strategies when past experiences continue to impact the present.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ashley collaborates with clients to choose strategies that match their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful right now, adjusting the pace as needed.
Online therapy adds flexibility, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This can make it easier to stay consistent, get support in the format that fits best, and integrate therapy tools into everyday routines.
