More about me

Licensing: MA, LPC Years in Practice: 15 State: Michigan

I am a counselor licensed in Michigan with over 15 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and solution focused counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

I also have experience with manifesting for abundance, and energy work.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I currently offer appointments for sessions Monday-Thursday daytime and Saturday and Sunday morning appointments. I do have messaging that I use on a daily basis in between our sessions as well, and I check messages twice a day and will get back with you as soon as possible.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

She’s amazing, she actively listens and interacts with me which is what I’ve wanted in a therapist for many years. She provides insight that actually makes sense to me

Dr. Audrey is a professional therapist who listens with compassion and sympathy. She shares your enthusiasm on positive subjects as well as expresses her heartfelt compassion on other matters which are sad or negative. She speaks in a very matter of fact and direct tone, which I like. Sometimes it may come off as harsh, but it makes you see the reality due to her words. I don’t believe she is normally direct or harsh. But being a direct and straightforward person myself, she has had to speak to me in that tone of voice for me to understand what she is trying to convey. She will ask me questions, which allow me to think about a situation from a different angle or point of view. Or she will give her opinion on a matter and we discuss it. More often than not, I do all the talking and she just listens intently and seems to recall all of our conversations over the past year. I would highly recommend Dr. Audrey.

Listens and offers advice but has the hard conversations that are needed.

She is excellent. Exceeded my expectations

Audrey has been very helpful and she specializes in Narcissism, which is not something many therapist have knowledge in like she does. I have learned about how to come to my own solutions through her on how to deal with Narcissist people. She is very kind and down to earth to speak with and is creative in her approach as well. I appreciate that she is very straightforward and honest, while being professional. She is a great listener with diverse skills. You will enjoy the process with her! I highly recommend her!

Audrey Berdeski is great. Her input and listening to my needs and where I want to focus on is big comforting to me. She really wants to help you overcome your obstacles. Highly recommend her.

Audrey is like a friend - only smarter! Seriously though, she is very open and has a great way of guiding the conversation so that you feel like you mostly solved your own problem just by talking with her!

Audrey is extremely skilled and offers great insight. My life will be better as a result of the work I am doing with her. I have an action plan to relieve the pain points I am experiencing and I feel supported. I am so thankful that I was matched with her.

Audrey listens to me and gives me authentic feedback. She does it in a way that I need to hear. I don’t need to be treated with kid gloves. Her realistic advice and insight is quickly helping me with both immediate and underlying issues. She insists on communication during the week without making me feel like an inconvenience. I truly look forward to our time each week!

Audrey, is great. Been a big help in my process to free what is holding me back in expressing myself on my relationship

Audrey has been a great help. I was struggling in a few areas of life she helped me identify what the underlying problem was and gave me the tools to be able to make the changes in myself to overcome the problem. It has made things so much easier for me.

She is more of a knowledgeable friend to me. She is excellent and very easy to talk to. She has brought me a long way already

Audrey is an excellent therapist. She is a great listener with wonderful interpersonal skills and a talent for observation. She is genuinely empathetic and offers a variety of tools that have been of significant help to me during my mental health journey. I would highly recommend Audrey to anyone looking for psychotherapy.

Very helpful made me feel like I was in a safe space

She is kind, compassionate and offers a unique therapeutic experience.

I have worked with Audrey for about a month. She is kind, funny, and a good listener. She has helped me come up with better skills when dealing with my teenagers. I had a goal to be more in control of how I react to a situation and she has certainly helped me do that.

Audrey is a warm and genuine person. I find myself feeling like I'm talking to a friend. She has turned me from a frightened mouse to a person regain herself.

2 sessions In and so far Audrey has been helping a lot she’s great and very professional

Awesome!

She is a caring, attentive therapist. I immediately felt connected to Audrey. She seems more like a friend

Thanks Audrey! It was great talking through my issues with you. I was able to get clarity and move forward. Grateful and appreciative!

Audrey is the best therapist I have ever had! She made me realize how inexperienced my other counselors were and I’m so happy to get connected with her. Within our first session, Audrey pin pointed the exact issues I was having in my relationship and gave me tools to help cope with conflict and anxiety. Her strategies made a huge difference in my relationship and now I’m engaged! I’m so thankful for Audrey’s expertise.

Audrey is so patience and understanding and really knows the right things to say to help you calm down and instantly feel better. When I started betterhelp, it was the first time I had even thought about therapy. I didn’t know how to choose a therapist and trusted that I would be matched with someone right for me. I’m so grateful I was matched with Audrey. She is always rooting for you and helping you be your best self!

I have greatly appreciated having Audrey Berdeski helping me with my issues.

I always look forward to my sessions with Audrey. She really listens and is considerate, perceptive, and insightful. She never criticizes but isn't afraid to tell it like it is. She helps me see things clearly and in a less consuming and more manageable way. I finally feel like I’m doing real work on myself which is so satisfying. I would seriously recommend Audrey to any person who is struggling.

Very helpful so far!

Audrey is an excellent therapist! She "gets" It. I am so happy that I am working with her - there arecsome tough issues that I must get through. Then is not now, she has taught me.

I have reviewed her before, but I absolutely love Audrey. She really gets me and I feel so supported by her.

Audrey is so thoughtful, insightful and intuitive. She is really helps me to see things more clearly and in a less overwhelming and more manageable way. I finally feel like I’m doing real work on myself and my relationships are really changing which feels so fulfilling.

I appreciate the help Audrey is giving me.

She listens and give me different ways to cope with things

She is amazing at just listening to whatever you have to say and nothing you do say would ever be criticized. She will though, tell you when something’s a little off or you have to work on things like setting boundaries. After every session I feel a small weight lifted off my shoulders. That’s why I would strongly recommend her and BetterHelp in general to any person who has any struggles at all.

I always look forward to our sessions and I start feeling better after talking to Audrey. She not only listens to me but also makes me laugh, and she isn't shy to tell it like it is. Which is something I appreciate in a therapist.

I'm so glad I found Audrey! She's steady and encouraging, and sprinkles humor into her sessions. She takes a "you can't get to the top of the mountain in one step" approach to therapy and helps you learn to take things one step at a time.

Audrey is wonderful! She knows how to listen and then give you the advice and support that sometimes you didn’t even realize you needed. She dives into the heart of issues/situations in a safe environment. I’m so thankful to have found her!

I have had 2 sessions with Audrey and I love her. She is down to earth, funny and she has helped me so much in the short amount of time that we've spoken. I am so grateful for her.

Audrey is a wonderful listener! She gives me practical ways to show grace to myself.

Audrey creates a very safe environment, I feel like I can share all my thoughts and feelings with complete ease and trust.

I am grateful for the personal interactions and compassionate attitude. Her ability to understand my needs and give helpful tools was invaluable. I have been given what I need to pursue a life of greater freedom and joy. I am so thankful for this experience.

Great counselor…!

Audrey gives great analogies that help me really understand my different situations and go deeper. She's understanding and caring!

Audrey is incredibly insightful and a great listener. She helped me through a difficult time and gave me useful tools to better help myself in the future.

Life changing.

A brilliant mind that helps me function and process my deep rooted issues

Audrey is a godsend! I have had four therapists before her over the span of ten years, and in three sessions with Audrey I already feel a closer connection than I had with any of my past therapists. She is personable, extremely attentive, and so cool and confident that I can’t imagine anyone is doing a better job than she is!

I would highly recommend Dr. Berdeski. She is a thorough and insightful listener that has given me valuable perspective on my life. I appreciate her approach and demeanor, and it has been immensely valuable to have her as my counselor.

When I talk to her I feel like I'm really being listened to and sympathized with while also getting the sometimes hard to hear facts I need.

I would highly recommend Dr. Berdeski. I comprehend that not all counselors are for everybody but she has helped me immensely. She is great at helping you gain perspective in a beautiful light. I am truly grateful to have her as my counselor.

Audrey has been so amazing. She listens and is kind and compassionate and truly wants to see you meet your goals. I was going through a hard spot and she helped me so much, I am forever thankful for her. Talking to her has eased so much for me. I am very shy and I felt like I was able to open up to her immediately.

It takes time for me to fully trust someone, I felt a connection with Audrey. She listened, quickly responded with common sense answer, made good, straight to the point responses. The longer we talked the more comfortable I got. For the first dealing with a counselor, I feel hopeful that I can get real help.

So far so good with Audrey. She's very calm, asks interesting questions that I never thought of and she answers emails and journals throughout the day, so there is almost a constant feedback loop. I really like it and hope to keep this us.

Audrey is the kind of supporter I needed. She’s real with you but understands the subtleties of what you need to deal with things going on in your life. I’ve had the best therapy sessions with her and recommend her to anyone!

I have only had a couple of sessions with Audrey so far and have already seen emotional and mental progress in myself. That should tell you something about the effectiveness of our sessions and her counseling style. Betterhelp did a good job matching me with someone who is relatable, straightforward, and well qualified to address my particular issues. I most appreciate that she is upfront and honest, we all need that at times, yet she is still compassionate and kind. Thank you, Audrey.

Audrey is amazing - her approach is thoughtful and helpful

Audrey is great! She is a good listener, comprehensive and empathetic councilor. She has helped me a great deal and I feel comfortable and at ease when I chat with her. Highly recommend her as a councilor and confident

Glad to have her as my counselor. Great help to my recovery. Still a work in progress.

Very passionate and kind. Easy to talk to and very encouraging.

I feel comfortable and safe and know I can speak with her about any troubles I’m having

Audrey is AMAZING! She makes sure to hold her patients accountable and give great examples as guides to navigate through tough situations. Look no further and use Better Help.

I really appreciate having Audrey Berdeski as my counselor/ therapist. She's a great listener, educator and shows the best compassion. Audrey really gives me the space to self reflect. She also shares some really great tools with me when I need them. I would differently recommend her to anyone. This is my first time doing online therapy and I found a gem.

She is so understanding and caring

Audrey has been excellent. Through her direct approach and creative ideas I have made excellent progress in dealing with my obstacles. In just a few weeks I feel happier and my future is brighter.

Audrey is quite literally the best counselor I have ever had. I love her approach of “just a few sessions, put the work in, and we’re done” as opposed to my previous counselors’ styles. She definitely listens, and makes you put the work in on yourself to grow and get a handle on your issues. She is absolutely incredible!

She is really there for me and listen and I feel like I can’t just vent and she follows and let’s me talk and always offers a solution after recap.

Audrey is awesome and super supportive!

She's great!

She’s very good and attentive to what i have going on. Very easy to work with and helps me very much.

My counselor has been fantastic. When I got busy with things and hadn't messaged in a while she reached out to check on me and that made my day.

Audrey is awesome and a great listener.

I’ve had very positive experience and have recommended to a buddy.

Audrey is great! She is calm, collective and full of knowledge.

Very helpful with my situation, quickly came to realization of my situation and she was the one who made me realize it.

Audrey is the best counselor I’ve had on BetterHelp. She gives actionable advise without judging anything. I love our conversations and look forward to speaking with Audrey weekly.

Audrey makes me feel empowered and she’s very consistent and a great listener too.

I have only been with Audrey for a short period of time. However, she helps me to look at things I’d normally find beneficial as to why it might be something I need to look into deeper. How it may potentially be causing other issues deeper down. I’ve only had a couple over the phone conversations and messaging so far, however I feel comfortable talking with her and I appreciate the advice and just, great listening . I’m very scattered and I don’t think I’ve had anyone ever be able to keep up with me like she has. She seems truly helpful so far and I’m very excited to see where she can continue to open my eyes and honestly, just listen as well as she does.

A wonderful, caring, and intuitive counselor. Audrey’s experience and compassion lead to beneficial conversations that help you to problem solve, heal, and move forward. Her expertise and care is great throughout your entire journey.

Audrey is a good listener and a very insightful counselor. She is down to earth, not intimidating, and my experience has been good with her.

I highly recommend Audrey. She helped guide me through a difficult time, helping to put me on a path to wellness when I felt lost. I’m happy to report that I feel well and back to myself, but would definitely request her again should I need someone to talk to in the future.

Audrey has helped me through a very tough time in my life. When I was in a slump coming out of a toxic relationship, Audrey gave me tools to make it out to the other side. I was able to discover my self worth and realize the tangled web I was in! Im thankful I did not go through my life in a cycle of hurt.
