About Audra
Audra Tate-Kennedy is a Tennessee Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) with 14 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem struggles, depression, and life changes.
She has worked with people affected by trauma and abuse. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. Audra frames clients as experts on their own lives and looks for strengths to build on.
Her approach combines structured techniques and short-term strategies with attention to how past family patterns influence current problems. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with EMDR, mindfulness, and solution-focused methods where appropriate. This gives options for addressing upsetting thoughts, strong emotions, and painful memories.
In meetings she helps people notice unhelpful thinking, practice different responses, and set concrete goals. She also addresses communication and blended family challenges and codependency issues when they come up. Sessions are action-oriented and focused on measurable steps forward.
Audra works in Tennessee and conducts sessions in English. People who want to start are asked to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the service's online process.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Audra uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and habits, which often involves setting small experiments and practice tasks between sessions. EMDR is used to process traumatic memories by pairing focused attention with guided movements or taps; online sessions can support the preparatory work and processing steps for trauma-related concerns.Choosing the right method is collaborative. She will discuss your goals, symptoms, and preferences and recommend which approach or combination to try. Clients and therapist review progress and adjust techniques when needed to make sure the work fits the person's needs.
Confirm current session formats before booking since session details are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time to sessions. Discussing communication preferences and scheduling needs early helps shape a plan that fits everyday routines without promising a specific format.
