Audrey Burke-Wardlaw

Audrey Burke-Wardlaw is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, depression, grief, and relationship struggles. She uses straightforward, respectful conversation to help clients understand what is getting in the way and to develop practical steps forward. Audrey meets people where they are and treats their concerns as unique rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

She draws from a range of approaches and chooses methods to match each person's needs. Sessions emphasize trust, respect, and unconditional positive regard. The client’s perspective guides the work, and Audrey avoids assumptions so people can describe their experience in their own words.

Her background includes work in inpatient hospital settings, outpatient community programs, and home-based care. That variety informs a flexible style that fits different life situations and levels of need. Audrey also uses a life span approach and a multicultural lens when helping people from different backgrounds.

In practical terms she focuses on tangible tools: managing strong emotions, improving communication, and building healthier habits. She stays current with newer techniques and combines them with practical skill-building. Clients can expect clear goals and steady support as they try new ways of coping.

Audrey is based in Georgia and works in English. She helps people with issues such as trauma and abuse, ADHD, parenting concerns, intimacy-related problems, career stress, and challenges tied to chronic illness or caregiving.

Approaches and online options to manage emotions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and validating a person’s experience so they feel heard and understood; this helps people who bring stress, anger, or relationship concerns and need a supportive space to think things through. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, mood swings, and unhelpful reactions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers specific skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to try methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they decide which strategies to use and adapt them as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life, shorter check-ins when that helps, and the ability to continue work even when routines change. The biography did not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Licensed professionals can use these approaches online to teach skills, practice new ways of interacting, and track progress over time.
