About Audrey

She emphasizes practical steps so clients can feel steadier at home and in daily life. With 22 years of experience, Audrey uses straightforward talk and concrete strategies.

Background and approach

She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses emotionally-focused approaches to clarify feelings in relationships and to strengthen connection. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth.

Sessions are tailored to the problem at hand and to the client’s pace. Audrey helps people set small goals and practice new skills between meetings. She can address parenting stress, grieving, anger, self-esteem problems, career stress, and adjusting to life changes.

Additional focuses include attachment concerns, family of origin issues, communication problems, and substance use challenges. Audrey sees clients in California and conducts sessions in English. Practice details like format and scheduling are handled through the site’s subscription system and are adjusted to match client needs.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people find their own solutions. A therapist offers a supportive space and follows the client’s lead to build confidence and clarity, which can help with stress, self-esteem, and life decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It uses small experiments and skill practice between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address addictive patterns.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It offers clear tools for coping with impulsivity, anger, and relationship strain.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then recommend methods to try. This happens collaboratively and can shift as needs change.

Online therapy makes these approaches accessible through flexible formats. Clients can meet by video, speak by phone, or use live chat and text-based messaging for check-ins and skill coaching. That flexibility helps people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep momentum between sessions.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
