About Audra
Audra draws on cognitive and skills-based therapies to address thinking patterns and day-to-day coping. She uses mindfulness practices and motivational techniques to help people find steady footing. Narrative work helps clients reframe their stories and notice different choices.
She has 13 years of experience in the mental health field and works with people who face trauma, mood disorders, panic, and first responder and veteran-related concerns. Audra describes therapy as a collaborative process where goals and strategies get adjusted as progress unfolds.
Sessions typically focus on clear, practical steps clients can use between meetings. That might include short behavioral experiments, emotion regulation skills, or shifts in how someone describes their situation. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
People who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about next steps may find this approach helpful. Audra encourages straightforward conversation about what matters and makes space for small changes that build into bigger shifts over time.
How therapy approaches guide online care
Audra commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns that drive unhelpful behavior and testing small changes to see if they improve mood and functioning. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist and client talk about goals, try methods that fit the person, and adjust the plan as they learn what works. Collaboration helps match techniques to the client's needs and preferences rather than applying a single method across the board.
If you are considering online work, confirm the current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to schedule and to fit into a busy day, since they can reduce travel time and make regular check-ins simpler. Online meetings can also support shorter focused check-ins or longer skill-building sessions depending on what the client needs. Talk with the clinician about timing, length, and the best rhythm for progress so sessions fit into everyday life.
