About Laci

Laci Unruh is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 13 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, grief, addictions, and changes in life. She also supports those facing eating and sleeping issues, relationship strain, ADHD concerns, and trauma and abuse.

Her way of working is grounded in client-centered care. She listens first and focuses on what matters to each person. Sessions are practical and conversational, with attention to feelings and the everyday problems that create strain.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going. Mindfulness practices are used to teach moment-to-moment skills for managing stress, strong feelings, and panic. The client-centered approach keeps sessions focused on the person’s priorities and pace.

Laci often helps with anger that shows up at work or in close relationships by teaching skills to recognize triggers, slow escalation, and make different choices. She also supports people dealing with shame, attachment wounds, body image, and questions about life purpose.

Her background includes direct counseling for emotional abuse, physical trauma, and grief. She frames therapy as practical work - learning skills, trying them out, and adjusting as needed. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s goals. Online sessions keep that same focus by centering what the person wants to work on and adjusting pace and techniques to fit their needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches clear skills. Used online, CBT often includes homework, brief skill practice, and planning between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding skills to manage stress and intense feelings, which can be practiced during and between appointments.

Finding the right approach is part of the first few sessions. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick or combine methods based on specific goals, temperament, and what feels manageable. That choice is revisited as work progresses so methods stay useful and relevant.

Session formats are not stated in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow sessions during breaks or from a quieter room. Some formats also make it simpler to do short check-ins, practice mindfulness exercises together, or review CBT worksheets between appointments.
