Ashley Donahue, LCPC

Ashley Donahue is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), a licensed mental health professional practicing in Illinois with 12 years of experience. She has supported clients across the lifespan, working with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults from diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. Her clinical work has included trauma-focused therapy, involvement with the foster care system, treatment for depression and anxiety, family therapy, and addressing everyday family and life stressors.

Ashley draws on a range of evidence-informed approaches, with particular emphasis on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She also incorporates techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based work, Motivational Interviewing, narrative therapy, and solution-focused strategies to tailor care to each person’s needs. Her style centers on meeting people where they are and collaborating to set realistic goals.

With attention to how thoughts and actions interact, Ashley helps clients build practical coping skills and clearer pathways toward their priorities. She approaches each person as an individual, shaping interventions around unique circumstances, values, and goals rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.
