About Audrey

Dr. Audrey Berdeski brings a 15-year clinical career to her work as a licensed professional counselor in Michigan.

Background and approach

A former Doctor of Chiropractic, she shifted into counseling and has supported clients through a broad range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship troubles, grief, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, trauma and abuse, and life transitions. She also addresses issues related to LGBT concerns, family dynamics, and coaching for practical challenges.

Her manner is described as warm and interactive, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion without relying on stigmatizing labels. She integrates several therapeutic perspectives, drawing on cognitive behavioral techniques alongside existential and psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused strategies to shape individualized plans.

Sessions are adapted to each person’s needs, with an emphasis on collaborative dialogue and pragmatic steps toward change. Dr.

Berdeski offers weekday daytime appointments and weekend morning availability, and she uses message-based contact between sessions with twice-daily checks. She practices in Michigan and conducts therapy in English, providing a supportive space for clients ready to pursue greater fulfillment and resilience.

Practical Approaches for Online Growth



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression; it is structured and goal-oriented, making it useful for navigating stress, mood concerns, and coping with life changes. Existential Therapy explores meaning, choice, and personal values to help people facing transitions, grief, or questions about purpose by encouraging reflection and authentic decision-making.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their goals and preferences. Together they will consider symptoms, life circumstances, and what feels most helpful in session to design a tailored plan that can evolve over time.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit consistent care into a busy schedule or to stay connected between appointments. These options help maintain continuity of support, allow for timely check-ins, and provide practical ways to engage with therapy from different locations and life rhythms.
