Aubrey enjoys working with couples, helping them develop strong, healthy relationships as they embark on their journey towards marriage and for all the years that follow. She believes people are made to do life together, which can bring both great joy and pain. Aubrey understands that a great marriage takes work, commitment, and desire. Whether you are preparing for marriage, wanting to enrich your marriage, or need help in the midst of a painful time in your relationship, Aubrey will come alongside you and offer you the support and guidance you desire.
Aubrey also loves working with moms who need a place to process the struggles of motherhood, a place to be heard and to feel safe to share all their thoughts and longings. Motherhood can feel very lonely and like a rollercoaster. You love your children, but sometimes they drive you crazy and really press your buttons (also known as triggers in the therapy world). These times can be short-lived or long and exhausting. Motherhood brings up so many feelings and thoughts. Having a caring professional you can process your emotions with is life-giving to you, and in the long run to your family. Aubrey understands how motherhood can lead to feeling like “you’ve lost yourself” and are unsure of who you are, or what you want. She understands the desire to be the mom you always dreamed of being and can help navigate common pitfalls that lead to feelings of failure, making that goal achievable again.
Helping both male and female clients discover the “why” behind their behaviors and explore their story and desires is one of Aubrey’s greatest joys. She believes finding the root of behaviors or thoughts, is what leads to healing. Aubrey utilizes St
