About Audrey

Audrey Heble is a California licensed marriage and family therapist, LMFT, with 22 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, and parenting concerns. Sessions are presented plainly and directly to help people manage pressing problems at home and in their lives.

She focuses on practical conversation and problem-solving. Audrey listens for how emotions and behavior show up day to day. She helps people notice patterns that make things harder and tries out small changes that may shift those patterns. This often means working on communication, boundaries, and coping skills.

Her methods draw on client-centered ideas that keep the person’s experience central, cognitive behavioral tools that look at thoughts and actions, and emotion-focused work for relationship and intimacy concerns. She also uses elements from dialectical behavior approaches and existential thinking to address meaning, values, and intense emotions.

Sessions are straightforward and aim to clarify what is most urgent for the client. Audrey assists people in setting concrete goals and practicing skills between meetings. Conversations cover practical problem solving, managing grief, and handling triggers related to past trauma.

She has worked across many settings over two decades and brings that experience to one-on-one work. Audrey conducts sessions in English and practices in California. To begin, readers are encouraged to use the site matching and scheduling tools to arrange an initial meeting.

How sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions and how they help

Client-centered work keeps the person’s experience at the center and supports exploring what matters most in relationships and parenting. It helps people be heard and clarify their own goals during therapy.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems active. It is useful for stress, anxiety, mood changes, and habits related to addiction by offering practical skills to test and change reactions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and impulsive behavior. It can help with anger, self-regulation, and coping when life feels overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Audrey will talk with each person about what feels most helpful and adapt methods to the client's needs, goals, and preferences in a collaborative way.

Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits can make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while juggling parenting, work, or other commitments.
