DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?

After a lifetime of nurturing and pleasing others, you’re not quite sure who you are. 

Even when you have the time to focus on yourself – now that the teens have moved out, or the kids have grown up – you have no idea where to start.

Some days, you hate yourself. Other days, you want to love yourself… but don’t know how.

Though your life has looked great on paper, the truth is: you feel lost.

Maybe you don’t know if you want to be in your marriage any longer.

Or your teen is struggling with anxiety and depression, and parenting feels harder than usual.

Maybe you want to leave your toxic job, but making the change feels impossible.

Maybe your appearance has changed, and people treat you differently than before.

You’re unhappy with nearly every part of your life.

HERE’S WHAT I KNOW ABOUT YOU:

After being focused on your partner and kids for years, you’re finally ready to establish a relationship with yourself. 

You know that there’s more for you in this life. 

You are ready to get clear on what you want. (No more abandoning yourself to please others.)

You want to experience more joy, and feel more you.

Hi, I’m Audre.

LMFT | she/her

I am so glad you’re here.

I’m here to help you see how powerful you are. 

Nothing lights me up more than connecting with people about what really matters in life. Your dreams, your goals, your relationships… I genuinely want to hear your story.

In therapy, I am with you as a human and therapist.

I’m not a blank slate. I respond like a human being, in ways that you may experience as validating. 

My clients appreciate that I’m direct, laid-back, and authentic. I’ll sit with you in the hard stuff and celebrate all the wins.

Therapy with me is a partnership, not a hierarchy. You are the expert on yourself, and I partner with you in your journey.

I help you get in touch with what is already within you: your inner knowing & power.

Together, we create the conditions that allow your authentic self to show up.

How can I support you?

  • Therapy for Teens (13+)

    Helping teens through social anxiety, depression, and peer challenges. An inclusive space to explore themes like sexuality, gender, and identity.

  • Therapy for Women in Perimenopause & Menopause

    Helping women navigate transitional periods, allow herself to change, and become more congruent with who she authentically is.

  • Therapy for Moms

    Whether you are a new mom riding the waves of parenthood, or an empty nester adjusting to big life changes, this space is for you.

  • Brainspotting Therapy

    A brain-body therapy for somatic & spiritual healing. 

The space I offer is present, connected, and unconditionally loving. 

Drawing from years of clinical (and human) experience, I can support you to:

  • take actionable steps to create the life that you want

  • learn to love yourself

  • communicate your needs, desires, and boundaries to others, clearly and unapologetically

  • create a deeper relationship with yourself, and in turn your partner, your kids, and your family

  • feel that you have power & autonomy over your life (instead of being out of control)

If you’re ready to start living into your most authentic self, I am ready to support you.

IN CASE YOU NEED TO HEAR THIS:

You are whole, perfect, and complete, just as you are.

We’re likely a fit if…

  • I’m a real person & therapist in one. No blank slate here.

  • I relate to you as a fellow human being. Tears, laughter, and your whole self are welcome in all of our sessions.

  • I hold the perspective that we are spiritual beings residing in human form (though you don’t have to share this exact same perspective to work with me — my spiritual approach is inclusive of all beliefs).

    Therapy with me is not about finding anything, but about uncovering the layers that get in the way of our true self.
