About Audrey

Audrey Wendt is a licensed social worker who uses practical, evidence-based techniques to address stress, anxiety, addiction, family challenges, and trauma.

She focuses on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through difficult feelings and experiences. Audrey helps people identify small steps that build toward better balance and wellbeing.

Background and approach

She encourages courage and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Her work includes support for people coping with trauma and abuse and those dealing with drug or alcohol addiction. She also has experience with issues facing veterans and with panic and post-traumatic stress concerns.

Audrey addresses communication problems and feelings of isolation that often come with these struggles. Sessions are oriented toward practical problem solving, improving coping skills, and strengthening relationships where relevant. Audrey aims to empower clients to find solutions that fit their daily routines and values.

She supports clients as they try new strategies and evaluate what works. Audrey holds an LMSW, which stands for Licensed Master Social Worker. Her practice is based in Michigan and conducted in English.

She supports people who want steady, experienced guidance through life changes and recovery steps.

Evidence-based approaches for online family and parenting support

Audrey uses practical, evidence-based techniques that focus on clear skills and real-life change. One common approach is skills training that teaches coping tools for anxiety and stress. This helps people learn breathing, grounding, and problem-solving steps to use during difficult moments. Another approach is trauma-informed work that helps people process painful events at a pace they can handle. That work often includes grounding strategies and ways to reduce symptoms like panic and hypervigilance.

Finding the right method is part of the process. Audrey will work together with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan as progress unfolds and encourages clients to try approaches and report back what helps.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. These options make it easier to connect from home, during work breaks, or while managing parenting responsibilities. The variety of formats allows people to pick a way of meeting that feels most comfortable and practical for their life.
