About Audrey

Audrey Lahodny is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LCMFT) in Kansas with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on relationship and personal concerns including addictions, anger, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, parenting challenges, and career stress.

Audrey focuses on concrete changes people can make in relationships and behavior. She brings approaches that look at how patterns between people and inside a person keep problems going. Sessions include practical conversations, skill practice, and checking what actually helps in daily life.

Her background includes work with sexual concerns, substance and behavioral concerns, and situations where someone has used or received abusive or violent behavior in a relationship. That experience has shaped how she manages safety planning, boundary work, and communication strategies when needed.

Audrey uses several clinical approaches to guide her work. She draws from attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships affect current behavior. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to map out thoughts, feelings, and actions. She also uses emotionally-focused tools and elements of the Gottman Method and motivational interviewing to support relational repair and behavior change.

Clients can expect focused, practical conversations about patterns that fuel anger, resentment, or repeated conflict. The therapist helps people name what happens, try small experiments, and re-evaluate what works. The aim is clearer communication, fewer destructive cycles, and more manageable responses to stress and triggers.

How sessions work

How attachment and CBT translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at the ways earlier relationships shape how people react now. Online sessions use conversation to identify these patterns and try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) maps thoughts, feelings, and actions to change unhelpful behavior; online sessions can include worksheets and short experiments to practice between meetings. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and shift emotional responses that fuel conflict, which can be explored through guided conversations and role practice.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying a CBT strategy for a few weeks, then shifting toward attachment or EFT elements if relationships are the main concern.

Confirm current session options before booking since specific formats were not listed in the biography. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require video, which can help when a quieter setting is easier to find or a shorter appointment is preferred.
