Audrey Lahodny , LCMFT

“Life is about change. Sometimes it's painful. Sometimes it's beautiful. But most of the time, it's both.” - Lana Lang. Audrey Lahodny brings a decade of professional experience as an LCMFT to her work in Kansas, helping people navigate transitions in relationships and in life. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, she draws on targeted training and supervision to address sexual concerns, substance and behavioral issues, and the use or receipt of abusive or violent behavior within relationships. She works with individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan, creating a nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored openly.

Her practice includes support for addictions, relationship and family challenges, intimacy-related issues, anger, trauma and abuse, parenting, self-esteem, career transitions, coping with life changes, coaching, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas of focus include abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, attachment issues, blended family dynamics, body image, caregiver stress, co-morbidity, codependency, commitment and communication problems, control issues, disaster-related coping, divorce and separation, and domestic violence. Audrey combines evidence-informed approaches with practical strategies to help people move toward greater connection and wellbeing.

Appointments are noted as available Mondays through Thursdays from 8:00 am to 11:00 am for scheduling of sessions. Audrey is not accepting clients at this time.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Audrey uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early bonds and attachment patterns shape current relationships and emotional responses, which can be especially helpful for issues like abandonment, attachment concerns, and relationship instability. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering practical tools for managing anxiety, anger, substance-related behaviors, and mood shifts. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on the emotional experiences within relationships, helping partners and family members strengthen connection and resolve patterns that lead to conflict or disconnection.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Audrey works together with each person or couple to determine which methods fit their needs, preferences, and goals, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access care from different locations. Licensed professionals provide guidance and interventions through these formats, and Audrey incorporates the chosen therapeutic approaches into whichever session style best supports the client's circumstances.
