About Larry
Larry Powell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 13 years of clinical experience. He works with people who are dealing with trauma and abuse, intimacy-related problems, attention and focus concerns associated with ADHD, eating concerns, and depression. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted.
Larry uses a straightforward, skills-based approach grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. He focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and habits, then testing small changes to see what makes day-to-day life easier. Conversations are practical and action oriented, with clear steps to try between sessions.
In early sessions he typically helps identify immediate problems and sets simple, measurable goals. He breaks larger issues into manageable parts so progress can be checked regularly. This is intended to make change feel less overwhelming and more trackable.
For trauma and intimacy-related concerns he combines attention to current patterns with work on thinking and behavior that maintain distress. For ADHD-related focus problems he emphasizes strategies for organization, memory aids, and routines that support concentration. For eating and mood concerns he looks at eating patterns and daily behaviors alongside the thoughts that influence them.
Larry also addresses issues such as jealousy, sex addiction concerns, fatherhood-related stress, antisocial personality-related questions, and young adult transitions. He encourages straightforward talk about what is getting in the way and what practical steps to try next.
To get started, clients use the site matching process and schedule an initial session. That first meeting is used to set goals and plan next steps together.
CBT-based approaches for online sessions
Larry uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that keep problems in place. CBT sessions typically include identifying specific thoughts, testing whether they are accurate, and practicing alternative responses that reduce distress and improve functioning.He also focuses on practical skills for attention and organization when ADHD-related concentration is an issue. That work involves routines, memory aids, and step-by-step plans to reduce daily friction and make tasks easier to complete.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide which strategies to try based on their goals and everyday demands. That means reviewing what helps, adjusting methods, and setting realistic short-term steps together.
