About Aura

Aura Seidler is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) practicing in Florida with 21 years of clinical experience. She works with relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting concerns, anger, stress, anxiety, and related issues that often stem from the family people grew up in. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

Aura focuses on patterns that begin in early family life and continue into adult relationships. She helps people who are coping with loss, separation, or disrupted attachments. She also supports clients facing mood difficulties such as depression and bipolar challenges, and those dealing with attention differences and burnout from caregiving roles.

Her approach mixes evidence-based methods with person-centered conversation. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to address unhelpful thinking and values-based choices. Attachment-based approaches inform how she looks at longstanding family patterns.

In practical work she often focuses on skills for managing anxiety, sleep, eating concerns, and emotional regulation. She also helps with communication problems, role changes after divorce or separation, and the specific strains of adoption and blended family situations.

Aura began clinical training with a Master of Social Work from New York University and has continued learning throughout her career. She encourages straightforward talk about what happened in childhood, how it shows up now, and what steps feel manageable to change.

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Aura uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy as part of her clinical toolkit. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people practice different ways of relating to others.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences, then suggest whether ACT, attachment work, or a mix of methods might be most useful. Clients and therapist adjust the plan as they learn what works best.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats are offered. Many people appreciate online sessions because they can fit appointments into work breaks, reduce travel time, or use shorter check-ins when needed. Online work also makes it easier to continue therapy across moves within the same state. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and ACT exercises to work in virtual sessions, including behavioral experiments, values exercises, and skills rehearsal.
