About me
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California with over 12 years of professional clinical work experience. Additionally, I have extensive experience as a public school teacher. My clinical experience ranges across a variety of treatment settings including private practice, community mental health/substance abuse clinics, and in the elementary, middle and high school environment. I specialize in family conflicts, relationship struggles, parenting/co-parenting issues, motivation, self esteem and confidence, and vocational & career difficulties. With gentle balance and guidance, I will walk with you through your areas of concern as you process the vast array of emotions attached to the issues. Together, we will work toward a solution that is focused on your strengths to create a more resourceful, resilient, hope-filled life worth living.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Audrey Teshima. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Very caring and knowledgeable. Listens and offers solid advice to follow. Her exercises have helped me cope and she truly cares about my health. I feel heard when we talk and tells me what I need to hear.

In a world of nominally Christian therapists practicing on platforms like this, Audrey really stands out as a true believer committed to Christian principles and guiding Christian clients always with an eye on the Bible. Very happy with the care and guidance I receive from Audrey Teshima.

From the first meeting with Audrey, I have enjoyed my sessions. Audrey has a solid background in science based technique. Audrey provided me with many worksheets which have helped me develop a new and important relationship. Look forward to the sessions with Audrey And highly recommend Her.

Audrey is a great therapist, she has helped me understand myself and my feelings better than any other therapist I’ve had. She is also very good with checking in and answering any questions in a timely manner. I hope to continue therapy with her for a good while!
