About Larry
Dr. Larry Andrews is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in South Dakota with 35 years of experience. He focuses on helping people facing relationship pain, grief, anxiety, depression, and life changes.
He aims to create a calm space where people can talk honestly and feel heard. He uses a straightforward, person-centered way of working. That means sessions start with what matters most to the client and move at a pace that feels comfortable.
Background and approach
He also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors that lead to better outcomes. Common concerns he supports include stress, addictions, intimacy problems, parenting strain, anger, and career-related stress. He also pays attention to issues like infidelity and process addictions such as pornography, exercise, or gambling when those are part of a person's struggle.
Sessions are geared toward practical steps clients can use between meetings. Conversations often focus on clearer thinking, rebuilding trust, improving communication, and coping strategies for tough moments. The approach is collaborative - the client and therapist set goals together and track progress.
Dr. Andrews offers sessions remotely through video, phone, chat, or messaging. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability.
Fees vary by location and a subscription model is used and can be canceled at any time.
How these approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with respect and following the client's lead. In practice this means sessions start with the issues most important to the person and build goals together, which can help with relationship worries, grief, and self-esteem concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches people to notice unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. It is practical and skill-based, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and some addiction patterns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will check in about goals, try methods that seem promising, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients and the therapist work together to choose strategies that fit needs, preferences, and life demands.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and styles. Video is good for longer conversations and nonverbal cues. Phone can work when you need lower bandwidth or a quieter check-in. Live chat and messaging are useful for short check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
