Getting to know Audrey Metzger

Hi there, I'm Audrey! I’m Audrey Metzger, and I currently hold licenses in Florida and Missouri. I have experience in trauma and crisis care and am certified in EMDR, so we can get to the core of your trauma and work through it so it no longer inhibits your daily functioning. My approach to therapy is to give you tools that you can use no matter where you are or what situation you’re in. I earned my Master’s in Counseling from the University of Saint Mary, which has helped shape my approach to mental healthcare. My approach I primarily work with cognitive behavioral therapy, focusing on mindfulness and changing negative thought patterns. I have also used solution-focused therapy for shorter-term clients and dialectical behavioral therapy, focusing on radical acceptance and social interactions. My focus I typically treat clients who have a history of trauma or have recently experienced a traumatic event. I’ve also treated clients experiencing stress, anxiety, and depression. Lastly, I’ve helped to treat those with personality disorders, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder. My communication style I have a very upfront communication style. I like to be transparent and clear with my clients. This could be due to my history of working with inmates, where clear and concise communication is essential. I feel it’s important to educate and explain why a coping skill or approach is being used so that the client is more likely to understand and use it. My journey to mental healthcare I really enjoy helping people get better and feel more in control of how their mind works. The joy I get when my clients and I see positive change makes the job worthwhile. I remember starting therapy myself and the absolute relief I felt—the feelings of normalcy and finally getting answers to the feelings I was having were indescribable. If I can help others feel that way, that’s what drives me to do this work.
