About Aura

Aura Seidler is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 21 years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting stress, anxiety, depression, and related concerns. Aura works with adults and adolescents to address life transitions, mood disorders, and challenges like ADHD and compassion fatigue.

She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people name and work with strong emotions. Sessions are conversational and practical. She helps clients notice patterns, try new ways of relating, and practice skills between meetings.

Aura’s work includes attention to attachment issues, abandonment, and blended family concerns. She also supports people coping with chronic illness, caregiver stress, eating and sleeping problems, and body image. Her approach often blends talk therapy with concrete strategies to manage mood and behavior.

She has extensive experience helping adolescents find steadier footing at school and in relationships with adults. Aura has worked with many people on trauma, loss, and separation issues and prioritizes addressing trauma’s impact on daily functioning.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Her professional background includes a Master of Social Work from New York University with a clinical concentration. People who want straightforward, emotion-focused therapy often choose to start by describing what feels most urgent and practical in their lives.

Approaches used and what online sessions offer

Aura works with Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) which focuses on helping people name and respond to strong emotions within relationships. EFT is often used for attachment and intimacy-related patterns and for situations where feelings are hard to name. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach she uses; ACT helps people clarify values and take workable steps even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which combination of EFT, ACT, or CBT-style techniques to try and revise that plan over time based on how things go.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy day and reducing travel time. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm the available online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, avoid camera use if preferred, or keep therapy during life transitions while maintaining regular sessions with a licensed professional.
