Background and approach
Then she uses tools rooted in talk therapy to teach skills for coping, managing emotions, and improving communication. Sessions are paced to match each person’s needs and goals. Her background includes a range of clinical approaches, which she adapts to the moment.
That means using techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, showing ways to tolerate strong emotions, and helping people clarify values and take action. She also centers the relationship in therapy, paying attention to how people experience connection and trust. People come to her for help with grief, trauma, parenting stress, caring for aging relatives, chronic illness, and life transitions.
She works with concerns such as codependency, body image, and caregiving strain. Dr. Aubrey also supports those facing commitment or communication problems and those processing loss or separation.
Sessions are offered in English and she welcomes international clients. Her practice emphasizes practical steps, emotional understanding, and steady support while people work toward clearer priorities and better day-to-day coping.
Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck on them and then choose actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and finding direction during life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that cause distress and practicing concrete skills to change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and managing ADHD-related challenges. Client-Centered Therapy centers the relationship and a nonjudgmental attitude, giving people space to be heard while they work through difficult emotions and decisions.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Dr. Aubrey treats the choice of method as a collaborative decision. She will talk with each person about their goals, try approaches that fit, and adjust methods over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful when visual cues help the work, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and brief check-ins work well over chat or text. These options give more flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel needs, and make it easier to fit care into a busy life.
