About Aura
Aura Seidler, LCSW, helps people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, anger, stress, and anxiety. She brings 21 years of clinical experience and a practical, steady approach. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with attention to everyday problems that make life harder.
Aura uses a mix of widely used methods to match each person’s needs. She often draws on cognitive-behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thinking and on attachment-focused ideas to improve closeness and trust.
Background and approach
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy tools are also part of her work when helping people live by their values despite difficult feelings. Her background includes a Master of Social Work from New York University and long experience addressing early childhood trauma, loss, and separation. That history informs how she notices patterns that started in early relationships and still cause pain today.
She also has a long track record helping adults with mood and stress concerns. In sessions she keeps language straightforward and practical. Parents will find clear strategies for managing daily stressors and improving interactions with children.
Therapy can include short skill-building exercises, checking how strategies fit day-to-day life, and talking through responses to triggers. Aura offers work in English and Spanish and sees clients in Florida. People who want a thoughtful, experienced clinician for parenting concerns, grief, trauma, or mood issues often reach out to explore a plan that fits their life.

How her approaches work in online sessions
Aura often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. ACT focuses on identifying personal values and taking actions that match those values even when emotions are hard. Attachment-Based Therapy is another thread in her work and looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people notice ways of relating and practice new, more supported habits in relationships.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they shape a plan that may blend ACT, attachment work, and cognitive-behavioral techniques so the sessions fit the client’s needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people read facial cues and use screen time for exercises. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Chat and messaging are useful for short updates, skill practice between sessions, and flexible scheduling that fits work or parenting demands.
