About Audrey
Audrey Burke-Wardlaw is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 25 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, relationship problems, grief, and issues related to identity and intimacy. She also supports people facing parenting concerns, career stress, ADHD, bipolar-related challenges, and major life changes.
Her style centers on listening first and responding to what each person brings. She avoids one-size-fits-all plans and tailors methods to a person's needs.
Background and approach
Audrey relies on practical conversations that help people notice patterns and try different ways of coping. She draws from several approaches including Narrative Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Existential Therapy. That mix lets her help with thinking patterns, emotional regulation, meaning-making, and improving communication.
Sessions focus on real-life problems and small, doable changes. Audrey has worked across clinical, outpatient community, hospital inpatient, and in-home settings. That background informs how she supports people through crises and long-term concerns.
She uses a life-span and multicultural lens to meet diverse needs. People who choose her can expect empathy, respect, and a nonjudgmental presence. Audrey invites clients to set goals together and to move at a pace that feels right for them.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Audrey directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

How narrative and client-centered work online
Audrey uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about their lives. This approach looks at how problems are described and helps people separate themselves from those problem stories so they can try new ways of living. Client-Centered Therapy is also central; it focuses on being heard and respected so people can find their own answers and move toward goals at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, when used, looks at thought and behavior patterns and offers concrete skills to reduce anxiety or depression.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Audrey works together with each person to decide which methods to try based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan if something does not feel useful or if goals change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for in-depth sessions that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support, or follow-up between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules.
