Dr. Audrey BerdeskiLPC

Dr. Audrey Berdeski is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 15 years of experience. She moved from a background in chiropractic care into counseling and now focuses on helping people manage emotional and life challenges. Her tone is warm and direct, and she aims to make therapy feel respectful and approachable.

She sees people for issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, grief, and relationship struggles. She also helps with self-esteem, coping with life changes, and concerns related to trauma and abuse. Additional areas she supports include caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, infidelity, and money or midlife challenges.

Her style is interactive and collaborative. Sessions emphasize practical strategies and clear conversation rather than labels. Dr. Berdeski blends cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, existential, solution-focused, and mindfulness approaches to fit each person's needs.

She describes therapy as a tailored process where dialogue and plans change based on what helps most. She also has experience with manifesting ideas about abundance and with energy work, which she may bring into sessions when relevant to a person's goals.

Appointments are scheduled during daytime hours Monday through Thursday and on weekend mornings. She uses messaging between sessions and checks messages twice daily to follow up as part of ongoing care.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Dr. Berdeski commonly uses cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based work. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on practical tools to change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and coping skills that reduce reactivity and support emotion regulation.

She also draws on existential ideas that look at meaning, values, and choices when people face life changes. That approach can help people clarify what matters to them and make purposeful changes in relationships, careers, or parenting concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to identify goals, try different methods, and adjust the plan as progress and preferences become clearer. Clients are invited to give feedback so the work stays practical and relevant.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow quick check-ins between sessions. It also can support consistent work on things like anxiety, relationship patterns, grief, and life transitions without needing to change your schedule dramatically.
