Laci Unruh, LPC

Laci Unruh is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 13 years of experience. She centers sessions on the person in front of her and focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and life changes including midlife crisis.

Her approach is humanist and client-centered. That means sessions aim to be a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak openly and work through what matters to them. Laci shapes each session around the individual rather than following a rigid script.

She uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Mindfulness-based techniques are offered to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. The overall goal is clearer choices, steadier mood, and healthier behavior day to day.

Laci has specific experience supporting people with trauma and abuse, grief, addiction concerns, attention differences such as ADHD, and challenges around intimacy and relationships. She also assists with issues like body image, eating-related struggles, guilt and shame, and life purpose questions.

Sessions blend listening, guided activities, and simple skills practice to create forward movement. People who reach out are invited to take the first step when they feel ready, and Laci works with each person to set goals that fit their life and pace.

Approaches you can expect in online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person first. The therapist listens deeply and follows the client's pace, creating room to name worries and set priorities. This approach is helpful for people who need acceptance and clearer self-understanding.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches practical steps to notice thoughts and try different responses. It is often used for anxiety, panic, low mood, and patterns that keep getting in the way. Exercises and small behavioral experiments are common parts of sessions.

Mindfulness therapy brings simple attention practices into daily life to reduce reactivity and strengthen focus. Short exercises can support sleep, emotional regulation, and stress management.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide what methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. Together they check in and adjust strategies based on what helps most.

Confirm available session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. Some people prefer phone conversations when bandwidth is limited, while others like video for face-to-face connection. The practical aim is to help therapy fit into life so people can make steady progress.
