About Vicki

Vicki Lannerholm is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people make sense of stress, anxiety, grief, career shifts, relationship and intimacy concerns, and midlife transitions. Vicki speaks English and Swedish and practices from Michigan. Vicki uses a straightforward, human-centered style in sessions. She listens first and then offers practical psychological ideas that fit the person she is talking with. Her work blends client-centered listening with clear, teachable strategies so people can change habits that no longer serve them. Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to notice and shift unhelpful thinking. She also uses emotionally focused and existential perspectives to help people name what matters and reconnect with purpose. Mindfulness is used to slow things down and interrupt automatic reactions. Vicki often frames issues as patterns in the brain-body-behavior system that can be changed through growth, learning, and meaningful experience. She avoids quick fixes and instead helps people practice different ways of thinking and acting until new patterns begin to stick. People who come to her for help include those coping with trauma, sleep problems, parenting stress, ADHD, life purpose questions, or end-of-life concerns. She encourages clients to set realistic steps, try new coping skills, and track small gains over time. To begin, a prospective client selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules based on availability. Vicki works collaboratively to tailor sessions to each person’s goals and daily life.

How Vicki’s Approaches Fit Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's priorities. Online sessions can preserve that supportive, person-led conversation while encouraging small, doable changes between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. In an online setting CBT translates into homework, thought records, and practical experiments to practice during the week.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Vicki will discuss your goals, try methods that suit your needs, and adjust the plan as you learn what helps. That collaborative process helps match techniques to real-life demands like work, family, or health concerns.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Many people appreciate online therapy because it can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and let sessions fit into a busy day. Online work also supports using digital worksheets, screen-shared tools for thought records, and audio or video check-ins to track progress without requiring extra trips to an office.
