Audra Jungnitsch, LPC

Audra Jungnitsch is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who uses a people-centered style in therapy. She focuses on helping individuals manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, grief, addiction concerns, and intimacy-related issues. Her approach is warm and nonjudgmental and aims to help people take practical steps forward.

With seven years of clinical experience, Audra draws on several evidence-informed approaches. She commonly uses Attachment-Based methods to look at relationship patterns, Client-Centered work to follow the person's lead, and Cognitive Behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also incorporates elements of Emotionally-Focused and Existential work when those fit a person's needs.

Audra has supported people facing trauma and abuse, mood and personality challenges, ADHD, and complicated grief. She also helps with parenting strain, caregiver stress, body image concerns, and issues that stem from abandonment or adoption and foster care situations. Her background includes experience in individual, group, and family settings.

In sessions she aims to listen first, clarify what matters most, and then collaborate on small, manageable goals. Conversations often include skill practice between meetings and checking what actually helps in day-to-day life. People who want straightforward support for life changes, relationship patterns, or recurring anxiety often find this approach useful.

To begin, she asks people to describe their current concern and goals so she can tailor sessions to the person in front of her. Audra emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion as the foundation of her work.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how a person's early and current relationships affect how they relate now. It helps people notice patterns, feel understood, and try new ways of connecting when trust or closeness is difficult. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and pace, with the therapist offering reflective listening and encouragement to help people make choices that fit their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that maintain problems and practicing different responses to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods match a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That means checking in regularly and adjusting the plan if something isn't helping.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for more flexible scheduling around work or caregiving. It can also make some check-ins simpler when a shorter, focused conversation is the goal. Talk with the therapist about what kind of session length and rhythm will work best for everyday life.
