Aurora Nugent
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
Hi, I’m Aurora (she/her). I offer trauma-informed therapy for kids, teens, adults in the Austin area. My work is collaborative, steady, and deeply grounded in the belief that healing happens when you feel safe, supported, and truly seen. I show up with warmth, curiosity, and a respect for how layered your experience might be, especially if you're carrying the effects of past trauma, anxiety, or relational wounds.
In our sessions, I draw from evidence-based models that support both the mind and body. Depending on your needs, that might include relational or somatic approaches, trauma processing work, or tools to help you shift patterns that no longer serve you. Therapy with me isn’t one-size-fits-all—we’ll go at your pace and adapt as your needs evolve.
