About Audrey
Audrey Chen is a Florida LMHC with seven years of clinical experience helping adults manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, and related issues. She lists work with ADHD, grief, anger, self-esteem, career stress, and compassion fatigue among her focuses. Sessions are offered in English and she does not accept international clients.
Her approach centers on attachment-based and client-centered principles. She listens for how past relationships shape current patterns. She helps people notice those patterns and try new ways of relating to others. She uses concrete tools from cognitive behavioral therapy when clients want structured steps to change thoughts and behaviors.
Audrey often brings emotionally focused ideas into conversations about strained relationships. That can mean naming emotions, tracking interaction cycles, and practicing different responses. For trauma work she adapts methods to reduce distress and support recovery while respecting each person’s pace.
In sessions she favors plain language and practical options. People can expect short experiments to try between meetings, simple skill-building, and reflection about how family history affects present life. She also works with parenting concerns tied to adoption, foster care, or family-of-origin patterns.
Her counseling style emphasizes listening and collaborative planning. Clients set goals and choose which tools to use. To begin, the usual first steps are a short questionnaire and a scheduled first session through the online intake process.
How sessions work
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Attachment-based work focuses on how early and close relationships shape current patterns. In online sessions this looks like noticing repeated interaction cycles and practicing new responses to reduce tension in relationships. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, reflecting, and following what the client wants to explore; it supports adults who need help sorting through relationship and parenting decisions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) gives clear, practical steps to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and can be used for anxiety, mood problems, and anger. Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Audrey collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She will check in about how an approach is working and adjust the plan based on progress and comfort. The original biography did not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by cutting travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for the whole appointment. Licensed professionals can still use the same attachment, client-centered, and CBT tools through remote meetings to address family-related stress, parenting questions, trauma symptoms, and day-to-day coping.Areas of focus
