About Larry
Andrews is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, practicing in South Dakota with decades of experience. He aims to make sessions a straightforward place to talk about what matters most. He works to create an open setting where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment.
His approach draws from client-centered therapy, which focuses on the person’s experience, and cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at patterns of thought and behavior. Together these methods guide practical changes people can try between sessions. Sessions tend to be collaborative and focused on real-world steps.
He has experience helping with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, process addictions such as gambling or problematic exercise, and difficulties like depression and bipolar challenges. He also supports work on infidelity, self-esteem, eating concerns, and career transitions.
People who choose Andrews can expect a calm, steady style and an emphasis on honest conversation. If a reader wants to begin, they can use the site Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on availability.

How his approaches fit into online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person in the room. It emphasizes listening, empathy, and helping the client lead the conversation about what matters. This approach is useful for people who need a steady, nonjudgmental place to talk through anger, grief, or relationship concerns.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps identify patterns that feed anger, anxiety, or low mood and then tests small behavioral experiments to change those patterns. CBT works well for goal-focused work like reducing anger outbursts or managing stress.
Choosing the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. Over time they adjust the plan based on what is helpful.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into busy days, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks or between commitments.
