Aubrey Long, LCSW

Aubrey Long is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Indiana with three years of experience. She sees people dealing with depression, anxiety, substance use, behavioral addictions, chronic pain and illness, and the effects of child welfare or foster care involvement.

Aubrey uses straightforward, practical conversation in sessions. She helps people sort current problems and set clear goals. She mixes evidence-informed methods with a client-centered stance and sometimes uses humor to ease tense moments.

Her background includes work related to child welfare and foster care systems. That experience informs how she talks about adoption, foster care transitions, and life after system involvement. She also addresses grief, caregiver stress, and the emotional impacts of chronic illness.

Therapeutic methods Aubrey draws on include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, client-centered work, and mindfulness practices. In early meetings she reviews symptoms and priorities, then agrees on a straightforward plan with the person she is seeing.

Sessions are practical and goal-focused. She helps people build skills for emotion regulation, manage addictive behaviors, and cope with major life changes. Her style is direct and conversational, aimed at making next steps clear and usable.

Aubrey invites people to identify their goals and to participate actively in planning treatment. She emphasizes collaborative decision making and simple, repeatable tools for coping between sessions.
