About Audra
Audra Schovan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Texas with seven years of professional experience. She welcomes people who are struggling and offers steady, practical support for stress and anxiety. Audra’s background also includes experience with trauma, depression, and major life changes, and she aims to help clients find clearer ways forward.
Audra earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Denver and brings nearly a quarter-century of parenting and homeschooling experience to her perspective. She uses that life experience alongside her clinical work to listen carefully and help people sort priorities. Her approach centers on collaboration - clients set goals and Audra helps build the skills to meet them.
In sessions she relies on straightforward, skills-based methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness exercises, and solution-focused steps. These tools are used to reduce overwhelming thoughts, create calmer daily routines, and target achievable changes rather than vague promises.
People who come for help with divorce and separation, guilt and shame, isolation or workplace stress can expect clear, practical steps and room to name what matters most. She also has experience supporting those affected by sexual abuse and post-traumatic stress, offering paced support that respects each person’s readiness.
Audra frames therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s needs guide decisions. She emphasizes small, manageable changes and practices that fit into everyday life. If someone prefers to begin, they are asked to use the Start Therapy flow to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Audra’s Methods Translate to Online Therapy
Audra often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people change unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so people can test small changes and see what helps reduce anxiety or low mood.She also draws on mindfulness practices that teach simple ways to steady attention and reduce reactivity. These exercises can help people notice stress early and choose calmer responses rather than react automatically.
Solution-focused steps are used to identify immediate, practical goals and build on what already works. This approach is goal-directed and tends to focus on what can be tried between sessions to create measurable progress.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss needs, goals, and preferences and adapt methods as sessions progress. Clients collaborate on which tools feel useful and which do not, so the plan stays personal and practical.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into daily life, whether they need shorter check-ins, help fitting therapy around work, or fewer travel demands. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused steps to remote sessions to support steady progress.
