About Audrey

Audrey Chen is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, ADHD, parenting strain, grief, anger, and issues around identity and LGBT concerns. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.

Audrey uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside attachment-based and client-centered approaches to address painful emotions and recurring relationship patterns. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness when people prefer clear strategies to manage thoughts and behaviors.

In session she keeps the focus on the person's goals and perspective. She emphasizes practical steps such as problem-solving for communication problems, tools for anger and impulsivity, and methods to manage mood and anxiety symptoms. For trauma-related concerns she uses trauma-focused work informed by the client's needs.

Her background includes work with adoption and foster care issues, domestic violence and family-of-origin problems, divorce and separation, post-traumatic stress, and coping after disasters. She also addresses financial stress, isolation, and career-related concerns that affect day-to-day functioning.

Audrey approaches sessions in a collaborative way. Clients are invited to shape the work and choose which methods feel most helpful. To begin, readers are asked to use the site's matching process and schedule a first session if they wish to proceed.

Approaches used online and how they fit daily life

Audrey commonly uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with strong emotions and recurring relationship patterns. EFT focuses on identifying core feelings and reshaping how people respond to those feelings in relationships or personal conflicts.

She also uses attachment-based work to look at how early connection patterns affect current relationships and emotional reactions. This helps when past relationship dynamics show up in parenting, friendships, or intimate connections. Client-centered therapy is part of her approach too, offering a way to prioritize the person's perspective and goals while exploring what feels most useful.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Audrey will help clients decide whether EFT, attachment work, CBT tools, or mindfulness techniques fit best for their goals and preferences. She adapts methods based on what the client wants to focus on and how they respond to different techniques.

The original biography did not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or remove travel time so people can access care from more locations. These practical benefits often help people keep consistent momentum between sessions.
