About Audrey

Audrey Burke-Wardlaw is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 25 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, and parenting concerns. Her work also includes support for LGBT issues, coping with life changes, career questions, and attention-related challenges like ADHD.

She keeps things practical and personal in sessions. Audrey adapts methods to the individual rather than using one fixed approach. She draws on client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical skills, existential ideas, and mindfulness exercises as needed.

Background and approach

Audrey has practiced across many settings, including community outpatient programs, hospitals, in-home care, and group work. That variety informs how she helps people manage real-life stressors and transitions. She pays attention to cultural context and uses a lifespan perspective so adults at different stages can find relevant support.

Her counseling style emphasizes trust, respect, and unconditional positive regard. She listens without judgment and asks clients to describe their problems in their own words. Sessions focus on meeting people where they are and building on their strengths.

Audrey stays current with new counseling ideas and chooses techniques based on what a person needs. She works collaboratively with each client to set goals and try approaches that fit their life and values. People who want straightforward, experienced guidance with parenting, relationships, mood concerns, or life transitions often seek her perspective.

She practices in Georgia and conducts sessions in English.

Online support

How Audrey’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Audrey often blends client-centered techniques with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Client-centered work emphasizes listening and following the person's lead, which helps build trust and clear goals. CBT offers concrete skills for anxiety, low mood, and parenting stress.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are priorities. DBT techniques provide tools for managing intense emotions, navigating conflict, and improving communication, which can be useful for relationship and anger issues.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative step. Audrey will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and suggest methods to try. Together they monitor progress and adjust techniques if something isn’t working.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone works well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers no video. Live chat and text are suited to brief check-ins, skill practice, or when a written record of ideas is helpful. These options let people fit sessions around work, caregiving, and daily life.
