About Laci

Laci Unruh is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She brings a calm, straightforward presence to sessions and aims to make talking about hard things feel manageable. Her style emphasizes listening and meeting each person where they are.

With 13 years of experience, she has worked with concerns such as anger, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, and difficulties with sleep and eating. She also supports people navigating relationship challenges, addiction, ADHD, and life transitions. Laci pays attention to issues like abandonment, attachment struggles, body image, and social anxiety.

Her approach is client-centered, which means sessions are shaped around the person in front of her rather than a fixed formula. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Mindfulness tools are offered to help reduce reactivity and build steady attention.

In a typical session she focuses on practical steps and simple skills you can try between meetings. She aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can be honest about setbacks and small successes. The goal is steady progress, not perfection.

Laci practices in Texas and holds LPC credentials in both Texas and Oklahoma. She offers sessions in English and helps people sort through next steps when life feels overwhelming.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and adapting to each person's needs. Online work using this approach centers on what the person wants to address and lets sessions move at their pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. In online sessions CBT can include setting small experiments, tracking reactions between meetings, and reviewing results together. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity. These techniques can be guided during a session and practiced at home to build steadier focus over time.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, try different strategies, and adjust plans based on what works. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions reflect their needs and preferences.

Confirm the available session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. It also makes it practical to practice skills between sessions and to review notes or tools together during meetings.
