“I have been seeing Audra for 14 months and I truly could not have hand-picked a therapist more meant to help me get through some of the hardest things I've ever had to deal with. She is kind but honest in her feedback, and listens to any feedback the patient has, as well, about what is or is not working. Highly recommend!”

“I have been working with Audra for over a year now & she’s yet to disappoint. Audra never makes me feel like I have to hide my true identity or feelings, & even if she may not agree with my perspective she’ll voice her opinion & help me work through each issue on my own time. She’s also very empathetic towards those with chronic physical & mental health conditions! If you’ve felt discriminated against because of your health status I would definitely suggest Ms. Vann.”

Getting to know Audra Alexander Vann
Audra Vann is a fully Licensed Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina who has been practicing since 2019 following a rewarding teaching career and a two-year internship with a family resource agency in Southern California. She has a B.A. in Liberal Studies with a minor in French from CSUSB (summa cum laude/highest honors, special recognition for Excellence in Journalism), an M.A. in Special Education from Azusa Pacific with a concentration in Assistive Technology (summa cum laude/highest honors), and an M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden with a clinical concentration in trauma and crisis (summa cum laude/highest honors).
She recognizes some people experience more trauma than others, and we do not choose how that trauma initially affects us. She is planning for Level III training in NARM, a somatic-based therapy that heals core negative emotions stemming from traumatic experiences. She also practices Impact Therapy, which provides individuals with immediate feedback using metaphor and time-tested techniques. Audra meets you where you are on your healing journey. Common backgrounds are beneficial, but two very different people can build strong bonds just by leaning into the process. She is comfortable hearing your story, regardless of how others have reacted in the past—or if you’ve been too ashamed to share.
Audra has decades of experience with neurodiversity, cognitive/ language/ behavioral disorders, generational trauma and relationship strains from family of origin/parental alienation/adoption/foster/reunification issues, chronic illness, adult caregivers, and life transitions including end-of-life preparedness and grief. She is especially passionate about underserved populations such as LGBTQQIP2SA, survivors of trafficking and other forms of exploitation, and actively volunteers her time to support people in the ENM/Poly/Kink/BDSM communities to receive supportive and nonjudgmental psychotherapy of the highest caliber using the most up-to
