About Audra
Audra Jungnitsch is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who uses practical, relationship-focused therapy to help people tackle everyday struggles. She emphasizes clear conversation and steady support for parents and individuals facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and other life changes. Her approach centers on building trusting connections and understanding how early attachments shape current behavior.
Sessions are direct and interactive, with time spent naming patterns, testing small changes, and practicing new ways of communicating.
Background and approach
Audra blends ideas from attachment work, client-centered therapy, and cognitive behavioral techniques to match what each person needs. She has seven years of experience in clinical settings where she worked with a wide range of concerns. That experience includes helping people manage mood disorders, trauma and abuse, ADHD, intimacy issues, and challenges tied to caregiving or blended family situations.
Audra also supports those dealing with identity and relationship stresses including LGBT-related concerns. In sessions she keeps a nonjudgmental tone and focuses on practical tools that can fit into a busy family life. Conversations often include role practice, simple behavior experiments, and emotion-focused exercises to improve connection and coping.
Audra explains options clearly and checks in about what is working. Getting started involves a short matching process and scheduling a first session. The work aims to make daily life more manageable and to help clients build habits that lead to steadier moods and clearer communication.

Therapeutic approaches and what online sessions look like
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current reactions and connections. It helps people notice patterns in relationship behavior and build more supported ways of relating to partners and children. Client-Centered Therapy places the person's experience at the center of sessions, with the therapist offering empathy and reflection to help people clarify values and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks larger problems into specific thoughts and actions, then tests small changes to reduce anxiety and shift mood.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan as needs change. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods feel most helpful for parenting stress, communication problems, or mood management.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use body language and tone, while phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited or a camera feels like too much. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, coping steps between sessions, or when writing helps express thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family schedules and support consistent progress over time.
