About Aura

Aura Seidler is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 21 years of experience helping people navigate relationship strain, trauma, grief, parenting challenges, and midlife transitions. She speaks English and Spanish and works from Florida. Aura focuses on practical steps to reduce anxiety, manage anger, improve sleep and eating habits, and rebuild self-esteem.

Her approach emphasizes listening and straightforward guidance. Sessions are client-centered and collaborative. She uses proven methods like cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical skills to teach coping tools. Attachment-focused work helps people understand relationship patterns that repeat across their life.

Aura has a long history supporting adolescents and adults through trauma, loss, and separation. That experience informs how she helps people cope with chronic stress, caregiving burdens, and major life changes. She also addresses mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder with practical strategies for day-to-day functioning.

In therapy she breaks problems into manageable steps. People commonly work on communication, setting boundaries, and rebuilding routines. She explains skills plainly and practices them together in sessions so clients can use them between visits.

Her training includes a Master of Social Work from New York University earned with honors, and two state LCSW credentials. Those credentials are FL LCSW and NJ LCSW. Aura pairs long experience with ongoing training in contemporary approaches.

If someone is considering therapy, she encourages starting with a short questionnaire and an initial scheduling step to see if the fit feels right. This helps set clear goals and find workable next steps.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Aura commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centered methods. ACT focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values, which can help with life transitions and chronic stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication, useful for relationship and intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. That collaborative process means techniques can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Session logistics should fit into everyday life. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten a check-in when time is limited, or reduce travel time. The focus remains on learning skills, practicing new ways of relating, and applying strategies between sessions so progress continues outside of appointments.
