About Audrey
Audrey Johnsen is an LCSW based in Colorado with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on building a trusting, supportive relationship to help people address stress, anxiety, self esteem, career concerns, grief, and other life challenges in a straightforward way.
She began her work in higher education supporting young adults and later practiced as a medical social worker in a hospital setting. That background means she has experience with end-of-life and hospice conversations, caregivers facing medical crises, and people navigating major transitions.
In sessions she uses client-centered conversation to learn what matters most to each person. She brings cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify thoughts and behaviors that contribute to worry or low mood. She also uses solution-focused and motivational strategies to set practical, achievable next steps toward goals.
Her approach is warm and engaging, aimed at helping people name a goal and try small changes that can feel manageable. Sessions often mix talking through recent challenges, looking at patterns that keep problems going, and deciding on concrete actions to try between meetings.
Audrey values collaboration and respects where someone is starting from. She supports people who are coping with life changes, parenting stress, career shifts, chronic illness and caregiver strain, and other concerns that erode wellbeing. If you want to work on self esteem, stress, grief, or career direction, she helps map a practical path forward.
