About Larry

Larry Eubanks is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, AL LICSW, with 26 years in social work and mental health. He began his career in 1999 and has worked in both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings since 2011. His practice focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, parenting, grief, and related issues.

Larry spent the first part of his career at a county Department of Human Resources helping families facing abuse and neglect. That work gave him long experience with family of origin issues, foster care and adoption concerns, and blended family challenges. His background also includes supporting people through caregiver stress, chronic illness, and major life changes.

He uses straightforward talk and practical skills in sessions. He helps people identify and process emotions and then practices coping strategies they can use day to day. His approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered methods, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques.

Larry emphasizes flexibility in how he works with people and aims to fit therapy into a persons real life. He draws on decades of experience with trauma, addiction, grief, and parenting stress to keep interventions focused and practical. He also helps with communication problems, codependency, anger, and self-esteem concerns.

People who come for help can expect a direct, skills-focused style that centers on identifying emotions and building coping tools. He asks about the immediate problems and then works collaboratively to create steps clients can try between sessions.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then take steps that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. Client-Centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can better understand their own concerns and choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Larry will collaborate with the client to choose or mix methods based on the person's goals, current problems, and what feels most useful. That selection can change as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy day and keeping momentum when life is hectic. Because session formats are not specified in his biography, confirm the available online options before booking. Emphasize quieter surroundings, shorter check-ins when needed, and the ability to practice skills in everyday settings as reasons people often choose remote sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and Client-Centered tools to remote appointments so clients can continue building coping skills and addressing family and parenting stress without interrupting their routines.
