AK Portrait of Audrey Kelly

Audrey Kelly, LMFT

Practical, goal-focused therapy for life’s challenges

About Audrey

Audrey Kelly is a licensed marriage and family therapist who draws on 21 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, and relationship difficulties in straightforward, practical ways.

Background and approach

Her work often centers on improving communication and restoring balance during life changes. In sessions she listens first and then helps people set clear, achievable goals.

She uses approaches that encourage clients to notice patterns, try small changes, and build skills that fit daily life. This can look like shifting unhelpful thoughts, practicing new ways to talk with a partner, or finding steps to reduce urges tied to substance use.

Audrey has worked with people facing aging and geriatric concerns, those with military and veteran backgrounds, and others struggling with codependency or control issues. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, intimacy-related problems, forgiveness, and coping after infidelity.

Her style is collaborative and practical. She helps people break big problems into smaller tasks and checks progress each week.

The aim is to leave sessions with tools that can be used right away. Practicing in Oklahoma, Audrey offers sessions in English.

She provides a mix of meeting formats to match different needs, and she helps people decide which approach will work best for their situation.

Using Client-Centered and Solution-Focused Methods Online

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and understanding the person’s perspective. In practice this means the therapist reflects what the client says, helps them name feelings, and supports self-directed problem solving. This approach is useful for people who want a supportive space to talk through grief, anxiety, or relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to see what works better. It helps with anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with life changes by offering specific skills and short exercises to practice between sessions.

Solution-focused therapy looks at strengths and small steps that lead toward a clearer goal. Sessions concentrate on what’s already working, what a preferred future looks like, and simple actions to move forward quickly.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist works with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day routine. That collaboration can include trying a short plan and adjusting methods based on what helps most.

Online formats offer practical flexibility: video calls let people read facial cues and have fuller conversations, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break, and live chat or text-based messaging allow brief check-ins and written reflection. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
