About Larry

Larry Laehn is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 30 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, and addiction. He focuses on practical help for everyday problems and offers a calm, nonjudgmental presence. Larry works with clients who are dealing with grief, anger, sleep troubles, career strain, and the demands of caregiving or illness.

He combines clear, client-centered conversation with tools drawn from evidence-informed approaches. Sessions emphasize skills you can use between meetings, like managing strong emotions, improving communication, and coping with life changes. Larry also brings experience from vocational rehabilitation and community mental health into treatment planning.

People often come for help with relationship strain, codependency, or questions about purpose and meaning. He supports those facing chronic pain, cancer, aging concerns, and end-of-life issues. Work with addiction, including drug and alcohol problems, and recovery planning are also part of his practice.

Larry aims to make therapy straightforward and usable. He helps clients set realistic goals and practices concrete ways to reach them. Sessions balance listening with action so people leave with clearer steps to try.

Clients can expect a respectful, steady approach focused on building resilience. Larry draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered methods, and Existential ideas to tailor work to each person’s situation.

Approaches that guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps you notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that matter to you, even when feelings are strong. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through clear exercises and homework. It often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, listening stance where the therapist follows the client’s lead and helps clarify goals and values.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences, then try methods that fit those priorities. Over time the plan can change based on what works best for you, so collaboration is central to treatment.

Confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by cutting down on travel and allowing sessions during breaks or from different locations. It can also let people choose shorter check-ins or work without being on camera when that helps. Ask about the available formats when you schedule so sessions match your routine and needs.
