About Audrey

Audrey Bennett is a Connecticut LCSW with 20 years of clinical experience. She helps people address stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, grief, and intimacy-related issues.

She works in a straightforward, person-focused way. Sessions are practical and conversational. She listens to what matters most and talks through options that can make day-to-day life easier.

Therapeutic methods she uses include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Jungian Therapy, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Therapy. That means sessions may include examining thought patterns, practicing present-moment awareness, noticing personal themes, and setting small, achievable goals.

Audrey often helps people who are coping with family-related concerns such as parenting stress, separation, adoption and foster care questions, and family-of-origin issues. She also works with people facing grief, illness-related challenges, addiction, and midlife transitions.

Her approach aims to be candid and steady. Conversations focus on practical strategies, clearer communication, and gradual changes clients can manage between meetings. She expects honest work and helps people build skills they can use in everyday life.

How sessions work

Approaches and what online sessions can offer

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective. The therapist listens carefully and helps the person name what matters most, which can help with relationship strain, parenting stress, and self-esteem concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior. It involves practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a client's goals and preferences. That may mean using mindfulness practices alongside CBT tools or leaning into solution-focused steps for immediate problems.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since formats are not detailed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let someone join from a quieter space or when taking a break at work. Licensed professionals adapt their methods so therapy remains focused and practical even when it is delivered remotely.
