About Me
Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Oklahoma and have over 10 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I understand the importance of empowering people to find their best self. I feel that it it very important to find a counselor that you can connect with in a judgement free zone. I have worked with clients in a variety of settings, such as community mental health centers, jails, child placing agencies, and private agencies. I have helped my clients address many different concerns, such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship/family issues, poor communication styles, and trauma. Furthermore, I have worked in the field of social work and mental health for over 16 years helping individuals and families.
My counseling style is client-centered and empathetic. I pride myself on being non-judgmental and honest. I am LGBTIQA2+ affirming and believe that everyone deserves to live a happy and meaningful life.
The fact that you are looking into counseling says a lot about you and I know that it can be difficult to reach out for help. I would love to be able to work with you and help you on your journey, whatever that means for you. I can interact with you in whatever manner you are most comfortable. Video sessions can be helpful until we get to know each other, but I am also available via phone and text if needed. I am mainly available evenings and on weekends but I check messages several times during the weekdays.
Thanks for reading and I look forward to working with you!

Audra is awesome! Over the course of Nov to Jan, which is really only 3 short months, I've made so much progress with her help. I'm really happy to have had her as my counselor throughout my personal growth journey so far!
Audra has been nothing but welcoming and helpful. Her kind personality has allowed me to open up more about myself and feel 100% comfortable. She doesn’t judge or question your feelings in a negative manner and you can tell she really is here trying to help you. Words alone aren’t enough express my gratitude towards Audra, she’s literally the best.
Audra is awesome. I’ve seen a handful of therapists over my life, and at times I’ve had to explain myself multiple ways before I felt like they had a grip on the situation at hand. Audra gets me right away, and has great feedback. And she’s very enjoyable to talk to. Feels like talking with an unbiased friend who gives great advice.
Audra is very respectful and engaged in our conversations. She remembers the things I’ve said and that helps a lot with making progress. I can feel that she cares. Very professional. I am grateful for our chats.
Audra takes time to respond to questions i have, and she is a good guide as to my betterment. I am glad i have her during this very trying time of my life
I feel very comfortable talking to Audra! She makes me feel understood and respected and genuinely wants to support me with my issues. I like working with her.
