About Audie
Audie Whitaker is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing relationship strain, trauma, and questions about sexuality.

Clients can expect direct talk about symptoms and triggers, plus guidance on breathing, grounding, and behavior changes that reduce the power of panic. He also supports people exploring their sexual identity or negotiating relationship boundaries in ways that fit their values.
Audie emphasizes respect and empowerment. He checks in about goals as therapy progresses and adjusts the plan when needed. People who want practical, steady support for panic, trauma, or relationship and sexuality concerns may find his approach clear and approachable.
