About Audrey

Audrey Burke-Wardlaw is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strains, grief, trauma and abuse, and codependency related concerns. She also supports people facing parenting pressures, career changes, ADHD, bipolar challenges, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

Audrey uses a life-span perspective and a multicultural lens. She has practiced in clinical settings, outpatient community programs, hospital inpatient units, and in-home services. That range shaped a practical style that adjusts to each person's situation rather than following one fixed method.

Sessions focus on what the client brings. Audrey draws from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior ideas, existential questions, and mindfulness practices. She adapts tools to match goals like reducing anxiety, managing anger, or improving communication in relationships.

Her approach is straightforward. She listens without judgment and asks clients to describe problems in their own words. Treatment choices flow from those conversations, with clear steps and exercises when useful and space to reflect when that helps.

Audrey emphasizes collaboration. Clients can expect a mix of talk, skill-building, and practical strategies aimed at handling everyday stressors and complicated emotions. She stays current with new approaches and tailors what she uses to the person sitting across from her.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters most to the client. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist follow the client's lead and prioritize the issues the person brings up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and builds practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. In online sessions CBT often includes structured exercises and homework that people can use between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships, and it can be delivered in brief skill-focused segments during remote sessions.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust as progress unfolds. That collaborative process helps pinpoint what actually helps in daily life rather than sticking to one fixed method.

The practical advantages of online therapy are about fitting sessions into everyday life. It can make scheduling easier around work or caregiving, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current session options before booking so you know what is offered and how sessions are scheduled.
