   About Audrey

   Audrey Chen is a Florida-based licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who centers sessions on the person’s own goals and strengths. She uses Motivational Interviewing alongside client-centered work to help people explore motivation and make changes that matter to them. Her style is practical and respectful, aimed at helping people feel understood and more able to move forward.

   She has seven years of experience supporting people facing anxiety, depression, and stress. She also helps those dealing with relationship and family conflict, parenting strain, anger, and grief. Audrey has worked with people affected by trauma and abuse and with concerns related to ADHD and mood disorders.

   In sessions she combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques when people want more concrete tools. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships affect current patterns. Motivational Interviewing is used to help clients clarify what they want and to find small workable steps toward change.

   Audrey emphasizes collaboration. She treats people as the experts on their lives and focuses on what they want to accomplish. Sessions are paced to each person’s needs, whether that means skills practice, problem-solving, or reflective conversation.

   Her training and work history have included supporting people after major life changes, adoption and foster care concerns, and those navigating gender identity related issues. She practices in Florida and offers services in English.

2. How therapy approaches shape online sessions

   Audrey uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and to build small, achievable steps toward goals. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure how to begin making a change.
   
   She also integrates client-centered methods that prioritize listening and understanding the person’s perspective. That helps people feel heard and helps the therapist tailor goals to what matters most to the client. Attachment-based ideas are used to notice how past relationship patterns influence current reactions and to support new ways of relating.
   
   Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods best match their goals, preferences, and life situation. That choice can change over time as needs evolve.
   
   If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy fits into a busy week. Licensed professionals can use conversational tools, skills practice, and motivational conversations effectively in remote sessions, and Audrey will help shape the plan to fit everyday life.
