Larry Powell, LPC

Larry Powell is a Michigan-licensed counselor with 13 years of professional experience who focuses on helping people move toward more satisfying and stable lives. He holds the LPC credential - Licensed Professional Counselor - and builds treatment plans around each person’s individual circumstances and goals. He works with adults dealing with trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, challenges with concentration, memory, and focus related to ADHD, as well as eating difficulties and depression.

He approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, aiming to create a supportive space where change is possible. Sessions are shaped to fit the client’s needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, and he adjusts dialogue and therapeutic tasks to match what will be most useful in the client’s life.

Powell frames the decision to begin therapy as a courageous first step and emphasizes empowerment throughout the process. He partners with clients to identify practical steps and coping strategies that align with their values and goals, offering guidance and encouragement as they work toward a more fulfilling and happier life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Online Care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful patterns of thought and behavior. It often involves practical exercises between sessions, skills for managing distressing thoughts, and steps to shift behaviors that maintain problems. This approach can be applied to symptoms of depression, challenges following trauma, and patterns that affect relationships.

For concentration and focus difficulties related to ADHD, CBT techniques are adapted to emphasize structured routines, problem-solving strategies, and small, achievable goals that support daily functioning. These methods help break tasks into manageable parts and build consistent habits that improve attention and follow-through.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Larry Powell works with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and he tailors interventions accordingly. Together they assess what strategies feel most helpful and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - which makes it easier to fit care into a busy life or to connect from different locations. This variety of formats helps clients access consistent support and engage in therapy in ways that suit their schedules and communication styles.
