About Aubrey

Aubrey Long is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with three years of experience. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, substance use and behavioral addictions, chronic pain and illness, and concerns tied to child welfare and foster care. Aubrey describes her work as practical and straightforward, and she often uses humor to help relieve tension in difficult conversations.

Clients can expect an initial conversation about current struggles and goals. Aubrey uses that information to build a clear plan for sessions. She places the client in the lead role while helping guide next steps and offering concrete strategies.

Her approach blends several evidence-based methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports noticing thoughts without letting them control choices. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.

Aubrey also draws on Client-Centered techniques, which focus on listening and responding to what matters most to the person in front of her. She has practical experience working with people involved in child welfare and foster care systems and can help navigate challenges that come from that background.

Sessions are conversational and practical. Aubrey aims to break big problems into manageable steps and to teach skills people can use between meetings. She encourages people to try small experiments, notice what helps, and adjust the plan as they go.

How Aubrey applies therapy approaches online

Aubrey often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in her practice. CBT focuses on recognizing unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence to change patterns of thinking and behavior. ACT teaches noticing thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions, helping people commit to values-based steps even when anxiety or discomfort is present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and help decide which methods to emphasize. That decision is collaborative and can shift as sessions progress based on what helps most.

In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and lower travel time. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to teach CBT and ACT skills, practice new behaviors, and support coping with social anxiety or life changes while working from regular routines.
