About Orlise
Dr. Orlise Aubrey is an LCSW - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker - practicing in Louisiana with 38 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders and relationship challenges. She also addresses parenting concerns, grief, trauma and issues related to attention and focus like ADHD.
Dr. Aubrey draws on several therapy approaches to match what each person needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy among other methods. Sessions tend to focus on practical skills for coping, clearer communication, and managing strong emotions.
Her background includes long experience with multicultural communities and attention to women’s issues and life stage challenges. That experience informs how she talks about career shifts, parenting strains, aging concerns, and transitions after separation or loss. She brings this perspective to conversations about purpose and what matters next.
In sessions she helps people notice patterns that get in the way, try new ways of handling stress, and practice small changes that add up. Work may include learning new communication habits, addressing anger or codependency, and pacing recovery from trauma or grief.
People often come when they feel stuck after a big life change. She supports exploration of values, next steps, and coaching-style planning alongside therapy work. To start, the process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.
Therapeutic approaches used for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps that align with those values. It often focuses on accepting difficult thoughts while committing to actions that reflect personal priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and reactions. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression and stress management. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on understanding emotions and improving emotional communication in close relationships. It can help with intimacy-related issues and repair of strained interactions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the approach over time based on what helps.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people find phone sessions require less bandwidth and feel simpler, while video sessions allow face-to-face interaction. Discuss format choices when scheduling to match sessions to daily life and practical needs.
