About Audra
Audra Tate-Kennedy is a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) based in Tennessee. She brings 14 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and changes in life. She aims to support people who feel stuck by listening, asking practical questions, and offering clear steps to try between sessions.
Her approach begins with treating each person as the expert in their own life. She works collaboratively to identify strengths and small goals that build momentum. Sessions focus on useful strategies rather than jargon, so people leave with things they can practice right away.
Tate-Kennedy uses a mix of evidence-informed methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness, plus solution-focused ideas to break problems into manageable parts. She also has experience with trauma-related concerns and has used EMDR in her work where appropriate.
She supports people facing relationship strain, family conflicts, blended family issues, and codependency patterns. She also helps with intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem, communication problems, and women’s issues.
People who choose her can expect straightforward conversation, goal-setting, and practical tools to try between meetings. To begin, clients follow the site’s Start Therapy flow to match and schedule based on therapist availability.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Audra uses cognitive behavioral methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is practical and problem-focused, often useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress management.She also brings mindfulness practices into sessions to help people build awareness of their habits and reduce reactivity. Mindfulness exercises are brief and can be used between meetings to calm attention and increase resilience.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to prioritize and adjust the plan as needed.
Because session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and mindfulness exercises to remote sessions so people can practice strategies in everyday life.
