About Audrey
Audrey Jackson is a licensed master social worker (LMSW) based in Michigan with ten years of recent clinical experience. She focuses on anxiety, depression, and sleep-related concerns, and helps people find practical steps toward their goals. Her work draws on straightforward skill building and everyday strategies rather than jargon.
Audrey uses a strengths-based, client-centered approach that begins with what each person already knows and can do. She often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and change unhelpful thought patterns that make stress, low mood, or sleep problems worse. Mindfulness-based skills and motivational interviewing are also part of the toolbox when they fit a person's goals.
Her background includes telehealth, community mental health, residential programs, job training services, and work in elderly home settings. She has supported people dealing with addiction, trauma, grief, workplace stress, parenting strain, and challenges tied to mood disorders. Audrey also has experience coordinating with local social services related to housing and food needs.
In sessions she emphasizes clear, teachable skills: anger management strategies, techniques to reduce panic, and ways to build daily routines that support better sleep and mood. She encourages clients to set small, realistic goals and to track progress between sessions.
People can expect a practical, respectful style that focuses on what matters now. Audrey invites prospective clients to begin by describing a current struggle so together they can map simple next steps.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and on the client's own goals. Sessions start with what matters to the person and build plans from their strengths. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches concrete steps to shift unhelpful patterns that affect mood and sleep. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that help when emotions feel intense.Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful and adjust methods as work progresses. Clients and the therapist decide together which skills or tools to try first and how to measure small improvements.
If you are considering online work, confirm the exact session formats before booking so you know what options are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also make skill coaching and homework review simple to do between appointments, which can be especially helpful when addressing sleep routines, anxiety coping steps, or building daily structure.
