Audra Nihart
Welcome! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 15 years of experience in the mental health field. I hold a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from Liberty University and am an active member in good standing with both the National Board of Certified Counselors and the American Association of Christian Counselors. I specialize in working with individuals facing challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. My goal is to support clients as they navigate these difficulties and empower them to reclaim control over their lives and future. I am a faith-based therapist, so I focus on aligning clients with their values and learning how to integrate faith into their healing and growing journey.
First session
In our first session, you’ll have the space to share what brought you to therapy at this time, talk about what you’d like to focus on, and ask any questions you may have about me or the process. This initial conversation helps us begin building the trust and safety that are essential for meaningful work and personal growth.
Strengths
One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is building genuine connections with my clients. I strive to create a space where they feel truly heard, seen, and valued. I meet each person where they are and walk alongside them with empathy and support as they navigate their own unique journey.
Ideal clients
I am passionate about working with those who are ready to face their emotions—not by avoiding or suppressing them, but by learning how to experience them in a healthy, grounded way. They may feel overwhelmed by anxiety, sadness, or life in general, but deep down they know they don’t want their emotions to control their life. They’re motivated to do the work, open to growth, and committed to living with more freedom, balance, and authenticity. They want to learn how to feel without getting stuck—and how to move forward with clarity, purpose, and resilience steeped in a strong faith foundation.
Treatment methods
Christian Counseling
I am a faith-based therapist. What that means in therapy is I come from a Biblical world view. For those clients who want faith integrated into their therapy, I utilize a cognitive, person-centered approach, intertwining traditional interventions and scripture.
