Directory

Aubrey Clark

Aubrey Clark is a licensed associate counselor in Glendale, AZ, who specializes in the integration of Christian theology and spirituality, with the best of today’s evidence-based therapeutic models and interventions. Marriage brought her to Arizona a couple years ago, and although she misses the California beach and the Indiana cornfields, she’s slowly growing an appreciation for the desert views here. Outside of counseling, she loves music in all its forms, photography, playing with my cats, comedy, CS Lewis, spending time in nature, and hanging out with loved ones.

Aubrey is trauma-informed and attachment-oriented, which means she will look for the root causes to one’s current issues. Trained in EMDR, the enneagram and spiritual disciplines, clients will get a tailored-fit treatment that allows for exploration of many areas of their life. She holds a MA in Pastoral Counseling from Talbot School of Theology, and a MS in Counseling from Hope International University. After working in full-time ministry for many years, she transitioned to fully focusing on counseling. Due to previous ministry involvement, I am particularly passionate about walking alongside ministry leaders and their families. For more information on fees, practices and how to get in contact, please visit her website.

Discovering who they really are, how God designed them, and what their values, strengths, passion, and purpose are, and who want to find meaning in their life’s story; (2.)
