About Audrey
Audrey Heble is a California-licensed marriage and family therapist with 22 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, cope with addictions, and work through relationship and trauma-related concerns. She speaks plainly and treats clients with respect and compassion.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and she aims to make that step easier. Her approach is collaborative and tailored to each person. She listens for the stories people tell about themselves and then looks for new ways to tell those stories.
Background and approach
She draws on Narrative Therapy to help clients separate identity from problems and find different paths forward. She also uses Client-Centered methods to keep the work focused on the person's own goals and values. That means sessions often start with the client's priorities and move at a pace that feels manageable.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another tool she uses when people want concrete steps to change thinking patterns and daily habits. Audrey works with a wide range of life challenges, including grief, parenting stress, intimacy issues, anger, career questions, and midlife transitions. She pays attention to how family of origin, attachment, and communication patterns shape current struggles.
Sessions may include practical skill-building, reflective conversation, and problem-solving tailored to what each person needs. Her emphasis is on clear, steady support and helping clients find strategies that fit their lives.

Online session options
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Audrey often draws on Narrative Therapy to help people separate who they are from the problems they face. This approach looks at the stories people tell about themselves and opens space to write different, more helpful narratives. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses sessions on the client's goals and values and emphasizes listening and empathy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used when clients want concrete techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and habits.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Audrey will talk with each person about their needs and goals and then decide together which methods to try first. The choices are adaptable over time, and she encourages regular check-ins to see what is helping and what can be adjusted.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer, in-depth conversations and when nonverbal cues matter. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging can be a shorter check-in, useful for practicing skills between sessions or when writing helps clarify thoughts. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
