About Larry
Larry Adams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with nine years of counseling experience. He works with people carrying stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, grief, trauma, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, and guilt and shame. He also supports those navigating parenting, career shifts, bipolar and depressive symptoms, and challenges linked to adoption, attachment, or fatherhood.
Larry draws on several therapy approaches to match what a person needs. Sessions commonly use practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. He pays attention to attachment patterns and to how emotions show up in relationships. Sessions are conversational and focused on concrete steps a person can try between meetings.
He aims to help people untangle old patterns that keep guilt or shame active. That can mean looking at family of origin issues, communication habits, or beliefs formed by faith or upbringing. He brings direct feedback and structured exercises when those are helpful.
Work may include short behavioral experiments, mindfulness skills, and practice in naming and shifting emotions. Larry also offers coaching-style support for career decisions and coping with life transitions. He uses the approaches listed to guide the work rather than relying on a single method.
Sessions are offered in English and are provided from his practice in Georgia. Before booking, confirm the current session options and any logistics that matter to you. To begin, follow the site's process to view online therapy options and schedule a first session.
How his approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then taking values-based action. It can help with persistent guilt or shame by shifting how a person responds to difficult inner experiences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. That approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, and behavior change. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people try new ways of relating and regulating emotions in close relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Larry will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He mixes techniques from these approaches and adjusts the plan as the work unfolds so it stays practical and relevant.
Confirm current session formats before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Online options should be checked on the profile flow rather than assumed. The main practical benefits of scheduling sessions remotely are flexibility and easier fit with daily life - it can make it simpler to have a short check-in during a work break, avoid travel time, or keep a session when schedules are tight. These practical reasons often help people maintain regular work on guilt, shame, and other concerns without changing the therapeutic approach.
