Dr. Audni Miller, LCSW, LICSW

Dr. Audni Miller is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with two social work credentials: LCSW and LICSW. She brings 20 years of professional experience and a long history of work in education, corporate training, and social services. Audni returned to Texas after years living elsewhere and now practices there as a private therapist. She commonly helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and life changes.

Her approach is grounded in listening first and helping people set clear goals. Sessions are client-centered and practical. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches to address day-to-day symptoms. Attachment-based ideas also inform how she looks at relationships and communication patterns.

Audni’s background includes a B.A. in English and Drama, an M.A. in Communication, a PhD in Education, and a master’s degree in Clinical Social Work. She has worked as a civilian social worker and therapist for the military and has two decades of experience in multiple professional settings. Those experiences shape how she sees patterns of stress and recovery.

In therapy she tends to focus on building skills and clarifying values. Conversations aim to reduce overwhelming feelings and make small, manageable changes. She also addresses deeper issues like attachment, codependency, guilt, identity, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination.

People who reach out can expect a steady, practical focus on the problems that matter most to them. She speaks English and practices in Texas. For those ready to begin, the usual first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the Start Therapy flow.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships affect feelings of safety and connection. In practice this means looking at repeating patterns, communication habits, and how people respond when they feel threatened or shut out. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses specific exercises and small experiments to shift unhelpful thinking and change behavior, which can ease symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to see which methods fit their needs and goals. That collaboration means checking what helps, adjusting when something doesn’t, and blending approaches as needed.

For practical online work, confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people try mindful and CBT exercises in the settings where they live and act, which can make those practices more immediately useful.
