About Larry
Larry Laehn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 30 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, relationship strain, and codependency concerns. He also helps with sleep problems, anger, career questions, and compassion fatigue.
He uses clear, practical tools in sessions. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what the next steps can be. He draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.
Larry's background includes vocational rehabilitation and community mental health work. That experience informs how he talks about work stress, communication challenges, and role changes. He often helps people clarify values and set small, doable goals that fit day-to-day life.
Sessions tend to be straightforward and problem-focused. Clients may work on boundary setting, coping strategies for cravings or mood swings, and skills for handling grief or loss. He also supports people dealing with chronic illness, aging concerns, or end-of-life issues.
He uses Client-Centered and Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas to keep the conversation practical and grounded. The aim is to help people build routines and skills that reduce overwhelm and improve functioning. To begin, visitors are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How his approaches work in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing painful thoughts and values-guided action. It helps people reduce struggle with inner experience and make small moves toward what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills for changing unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as practical problems and priorities change.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let people continue care during illness or when facing mobility limits. Ask about available session formats when completing the matching questionnaire to plan what will work best.
