Born in the inimitable Manhattan, Audrey spent much of her childhood on Eastern Long Island, on beaches, in forests, and in the local public library. Little did she know those early years in NYC, in mostly
unremembered city dwelling, had made an indelible mark on her. This was brought to life decades later when doing postgraduate work in London. She took to London like Dick Van Dyke to Cockney - with gusto, and a fair bit of humour.

Audrey studied at Tufts University, gaining her first interdisciplinary degree in a mix of Pre-Law and Social Psychology. She followed that up with research at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, before working for a couple years in legal research whilst stalling Law School.

Criminology linked her love of psychology and the law and Cambridge University called across the pond. She got her Masters and then moved to London, studying for a PhD while starting her consulting career at the Serious Fraud Office and a fellowship at the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies. She stepped off the academic train at the eleventh hour, going into economic crime security consulting. A long and tangled road led her back to psychology, after 15 years of being a criminologist, then retraining as a therapist.

The first stage of Audrey’s therapy training reflected her interdisciplinary background with an integrative training bringing transpersonal, humanistic and existential theory together with Jungian, Psychodynamic and Gestalt modes of working.
