About Audrey
Audrey Jackson is a licensed master social worker with ten years of recent practice and a long history in social work. She focuses on anxiety and depression and helps people find purpose and tools to reach life goals. Audrey draws on decades of front-line experience in community and residential settings to inform her approach.
She uses a client-centered style that starts with the person and their strengths. Audrey helps people identify goals and build practical skills to reach them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a frequent part of her work, teaching how thoughts influence choices and behavior.
Audrey also incorporates Motivational Interviewing to support people who are weighing change or feeling stuck. Mindfulness and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy are used when stress, strong emotions, or relationship patterns get in the way of daily life. These methods are presented in simple, step-by-step ways rather than as technical lectures.
Her background includes telehealth, community mental health, residential programs, job training services, and care in elderly home environments. She has experience supporting people facing housing and food instability, substance concerns, panic and mood disorders, and self-harm reduction efforts.
Audrey is based in Michigan and works in English. She aims to combine practical tools with steady support so people can manage stress, improve sleep, handle grief, and make clearer choices about work, parenting, and relationships.

How Audrey’s approaches fit into online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy starts by listening closely to what matters to the person and building on their strengths. In practice this means setting goals together and choosing small, doable steps to try between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on linking thoughts, feelings, and actions so people can test new ways of thinking and behaving; it often uses short exercises and homework to practice skills. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels uncertain about change by exploring values and ambivalence in a respectful, non-pressured way.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Audrey will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their needs and goals. Sessions are adapted as progress is made, and she helps clients decide whether to emphasize practical skills, motivation, or emotional regulation at different stages.
Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing commute time, offering shorter check-ins when needed, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every meeting. Those practical benefits can help people keep therapy consistent while they work on sleep, stress, relationships, substance concerns, or life transitions. -
