Audrey Wendt , LMSW

Audrey Wendt is a licensed master social worker with 25 years of experience in Michigan. She focuses on practical help for people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, family conflict, and trauma. Audrey works to create a straightforward, respectful space where people can speak openly and feel heard.

She helps those coping with drug and alcohol problems and supports people who have experienced abuse or post-traumatic stress. Veterans are also a population she has worked with in clinical settings. Audrey aims to help clients find healthier routines and clearer ways to handle daily pressures.

Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions focus on concrete steps and coping strategies rather than abstract theory. She often centers work on communication skills, managing panic or anxiety, and practical plans to reduce isolation and loneliness.

Audrey encourages small, sustainable changes that add up over time. She helps people identify unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding. The process is paced to each person's comfort and goals.

People who prefer flexibility can work with her through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Audrey uses those formats to keep therapy accessible and to fit support into busy schedules. She welcomes questions about how the process works and what to expect next.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Audrey uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that translate well to remote work. One common approach focuses on building coping skills for anxiety and panic - practicing breath work, grounding, and short behavior changes to reduce immediate symptoms. Another approach emphasizes trauma-informed strategies that help people process difficult experiences at a safe pace and regain a sense of control over daily life.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust based on what helps most. Audrey works with each person to find the mix of techniques and pacing that feels most useful and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video is useful for full conversations and interactive exercises. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow for brief check-ins, shorter coaching-style support, or ongoing written reflection between longer sessions. These formats help people fit therapy into busy days and keep progress moving forward.
