Raised in a home without joy or love, only duty ~to parents, religion, and school, Audrey couldn't believe in an all-powerful, cruel God they said ruled over her ever thought. Praise was rare, punishment was swift. What was wrong with dancing or listening to music or hanging out with other kids?

Secretly, she tried all the things her parents forbade. And God did not strike her down. Dancing and singing made her happy. Music made her feel alive. Being kind rather than competitive brought her joy.

Her parents found out some of what she'd been up to when her sister was murdered. Their rage pushed her too far. A group of pagans welcomed her and encouraged her to join them. She left home and never looked back. She learned about sharing, love, and self-defense.

Eventually she used her trust fund to put herself through college, and graduated from Columbia at the tender age of 22. She completed her residency at Princeton, and is one of the youngest NYPD Psychologists on record.


Dr Rourke provides individual, family and group psychotherapy for children, adolescents and adults. Sometimes, it is difficult to talk to our family or friends about our problems. Meeting with Dr. Roarke can help you to assess the seriousness of a problem and the best way to cope with it. Dr. Roarke is trained in assessment and psychotherapeutic techniques that can help you to answer your questions and manage your problems. You will learn to develop an individualized plan based on your strengths for dealing with your personal, educational and occupational needs.

In individual counseling with me you can expect to work on your concerns in depth to develop creative solutions, learn new ways to approach and manage them, gain a deeper understanding of yourself, and find a new sense of peace, wisdom, and strength.

Scheduling
I can schedule an appointment with you via phone or email, whichever is easier and more comfortable for you. I currently have select evening and Saturday morning times available.

Fees
I do not want cost or insurance eligibility to be a barrier if you are interested in working with me, so if you are paying for service out of pocket, we can find a rate that works for your income, or we can use a standard fee if that is preferable. We can discuss all of this during scheduling or your first visit. I accept cash, check, or credit card via PayPal at the time of the session.
