About Laci
Laci Unruh is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on practical, person-centered care. She uses a calm, straightforward style to help people manage stress, anxiety, anger, grief, and life transitions. She aims to create a welcoming space where clients can speak honestly and explore what matters to them.
With 13 years of experience, she draws on client-centered therapy to follow each person’s pace and priorities. She also incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy to identify thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going.
Background and approach
Mindfulness practices are used to build coping skills for overwhelming feelings and panic symptoms. Sessions are tailored to the issue at hand, whether that is eating and sleep difficulties, self-esteem and body-image concerns, or struggles with addiction and intimacy. She also supports people facing abandonment, attachment wounds, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose or midlife change.
The aim is steady progress, not quick fixes. Her work stresses clear, usable tools. Clients can expect straightforward strategies for managing panic attacks, reducing social anxiety, and improving daily routines.
She helps people try new ways of responding to old problems and practice small changes between sessions. Located in Texas and licensed as an LPC, she offers teletherapy options that fit different schedules. Her approach is direct, compassionate, and focused on helping people build more satisfying, sustainable day-to-day lives.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following a person’s lead to build trust and clarify goals. Online sessions allow this by giving space for clients to tell their story and set the pace for what to work on.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses simple experiments to test new responses. In remote sessions this looks like identifying unhelpful thinking, trying short behavioral changes between sessions, and reviewing what worked.
Mindfulness therapy teaches basic attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and panic. These exercises can be guided live during video calls or as short audio prompts in messaging check-ins.
Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what helps most. The fit is refined over time rather than decided at the first session.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for fuller conversations and guided exercises, phone sessions use less bandwidth and work well for check-ins, live chat supports brief progress notes, and text messaging makes it easy to share quick reflections between meetings. These options help people fit therapy into real life and keep momentum between sessions.
