Audrey Lahodny is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LCMFT) practicing in Kansas with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan, helping people navigate the changes and challenges that accompany relationships, identity, and life transitions.

Her core clinical focus includes sexual concerns, substance and behavioral issues, and situations involving abusive or violent behavior in relationships, areas in which she has received extensive training, supervision, and experience. In addition, she supports clients facing addictions, intimacy and relationship challenges, parenting and blended family dynamics, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem struggles, career and life change issues, and compassion fatigue.

Audrey draws on a range of evidence-informed approaches to tailor therapy to each client. She is trained in Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, and Motivational Interviewing. LCMFT stands for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, indicating specialized preparation for working with relational and family systems.

She aims to create an open, nonjudgmental environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly. Taking the first step toward greater well-being requires courage, and Audrey offers supportive guidance through that process. Availability for appointments includes Mondays through Thursdays with scheduling for sessions between 8am and 11am.

Therapeutic Approaches Applied to Online Care

Audrey commonly integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) in her online work. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationship patterns shape connection and trust, helping clients and families improve safety and responsiveness in relationships. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and problematic habits. EFT centers on emotional experience and connection, supporting couples and families to transform negative interaction cycles and strengthen emotional bonds.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Audrey collaborates with each person or couple to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress and circumstances evolve. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy aligns with what matters most to the client.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility by allowing sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit appointments into work, caregiving, and daily routines and allow licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent support even when in-person meetings are difficult. For many people, the accessibility and variety of communication formats make sustained engagement with therapy more attainable.
