About Audra
Audra D'Eliso is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people move past painful patterns and build a more meaningful life. She offers grounded, practical work aimed at easing symptoms like anxiety, depression, stress, and the emotional aftermath of trauma. Her style is direct and compassionate, focused on small changes that add up over time.
Audra draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to address thoughts and behaviors that keep people stuck. She also uses mindfulness practices to reduce overwhelm and Narrative Therapy to reframe troubling life stories. These methods are used together to target issues such as codependency, panic, mood disorders, and struggles with self-esteem.
With 13 years in the mental health field, Audra has experience assisting people facing addiction, grief, and anger, as well as those coping with first responder and veteran-related stress. Her background includes work with trauma and public safety populations, which informs a paced, practical approach in sessions.
In therapy sessions she helps clients spot patterns, practice new skills, and set clear goals. Conversations tend to be focused on concrete tools and choices to try between meetings. Progress is measured in what the client can do differently in daily life.
People seeking help are invited to start by describing the problem they want to change and what feels most important to them right now. Audra works with each person to shape a path forward tailored to their needs and pace.
How these approaches translate to online work
CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. In practice this looks like tracking patterns, testing beliefs, and trying small behavioral experiments between sessions. DBT focuses on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills to manage intense feelings and improve responses in relationships. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase focus.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that match your needs and preferences. You can expect decisions about techniques and pace to be made together, with adjustments as you learn what helps most.
The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and offer shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. It also allows work on skills and homework between meetings so progress continues outside sessions.
