My Approach to Helping
I offer a positive approach and unconditional presence and provide you with extraordinary service individually personalized to meet your specific situation and needs. From my experience, the process of therapy and coaching works best when we work collaboratively as a team and concentrate on your particular goals. It is essential that you are involved in establishing goals for your coaching and therapy, and that you ultimately make progress toward these goals. As a coach and therapist, I am practical in assisting you to create an action plan that will not merely offer you effective relief from your symptoms, but one that additionally can help you build a new vision for leading a more creative and enjoyable life. As one client said, "Audrey saw me through a point of dire questioning in my life with understanding and compassion. I have since made significant life changes I never would have thought possible...and recommend Audrey to anyone struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues and parental concerns."
