Audrey Chen, LMHC

Audrey Chen is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing anxiety, depression, relationship and family conflict, ADHD, parenting concerns, anger, and grief. Her practice also addresses trauma and abuse and related symptoms that follow difficult experiences.

Audrey uses a person-centered approach that focuses on the client's strengths. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral techniques when people want clear steps and tools to change thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on attachment-informed work to look at how early family relationships shape present patterns.

Sessions are practical and conversational. Clients can expect to talk through current problems, practice skills for managing strong emotions, and test new ways of communicating in relationships. When trauma is part of the picture, she includes trauma-focused methods alongside other approaches to help people process what happened and regain control over daily functioning.

Audrey pays particular attention to patterns rooted in family of origin issues, such as roles people learned growing up, expectations about closeness, and recurring conflicts that follow into adulthood. She also supports clients dealing with identity questions, gender dysphoria, adoption and foster care histories, and LGBT concerns.

Her style aims to respect each person's perspective and goals. Clients set priorities and decide the pace. Practical problem solving, behavioral experiments, and attention to emotional experience are common parts of her work together.
