Carson Aud, LCSW

Who am I?

Born and raised in Virginia, I do love traveling, going outside with my dog, and helping clients learn life-long coping skills. I strive to aid families, children, and young adults with understanding and handling their emotions, especially in times of aging, end-of-life, or grief.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Bachelor’s degree from Longwood University and a Master’s in Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University, while serving as Social Services Coordinator at a local hospice. But my experience is mostly with working in social services, providing treatment to children in a psychiatric residential center.

In order to tailor my techniques to better suit the needs of each individual, I use a variety of therapeutic interventions. Everyone has stressors in their life; sometimes, we need a little guidance and support in learning how to deal with them.

I love working with:

Children, teens, and young adults who suffer from: 

• ODD
• Bipolar disorder
• Depression
• Anxiety
• Life changes
• Grief
• Behavioral disorders

Some of my favorite approaches include:

Perspectives based on personal strengths, such as: 

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
• Mindfulness
• Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT)
