More about Larry

  • 30 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

Hello, I am Larry Laehn. I currently live in Milton Wisconsin and grew up in the Fox Cities area. I was adopted into my family at age of two weeks. I have a life-long challenge with Charcot-Marie- Tooth Disease and have used a wheelchair for mobility for many years.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Substance Abuse Counselor in Wisconsin. I also have provided Employee Assistance Program services. My 25 years of counseling practice has been in both outpatient clinical and in private practice settings.

My educational background includes an Associate in Finance , a Bachelor in Business Administration, a Masters in Management and a Masters in Education-Community Counseling. I am also an active Director and member of several not-for-profit organizations.

My therapy focuses on helping people find self-love and then using that state of mind/ body to tackle the issues that are holding them back in life. I use integrative medicine knowledge to address behavioral/ mental/ health challenges.

Problems faced by people are very often really challenges that are waiting to be solved. God does not create junk and each of us has value and untapped capabilities within us.

I would be honored to help you start or restart your therapy journey !

About online counseling

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Larry is a wonderful listener and has a wealth of knowledge on a large variety of topics.

Larry Laehn is a special guy. Through over a year of counseling, he guided me through many deep-rooted issues with calmness, compassion, faith, optimism, and encouragement. Having adult children my own age, he became like a father figure to me. Having worked in various career fields, he brings a well-rounded understanding of real-world experiences. I've counseled with many different people through the years and was looking for the right fit. Larry was the one.

Larry is one of the warmest, caring and easy to talk to human beings I’ve ever met. I truly felt like I had someone in my corner who had no vested interest other than seeing me happy. I looked forward to seeing him every week even when everything was going great. He was extremely knowledgeable and was eager to share up to date research he’d found while trying to be the best therapist he could. I would recommend his services to anyone. I’m so grateful to have met him and had him in my life.

Working with Larry helped me overcome this debilitating anxiety I had at work. He gives easy to follow tactics that you can use in your everyday life (which was exactly what I was looking for). He's very open to suggestions and listens to your point of view without judgment. I'm very thankful for choosing Larry to help me out - he did an excellent job

I am very grateful for Larry and have found my time working with him to be incredibly valuable. Larry is thoughtful and creative in helping me navigate challenges, from the biggest issues to the littlest stressors. He is incredibly intelligent and well spoken, which makes conversation with him enlightening even beyond the standard goals and topics of therapy. If you want an engaged and invested therapist who will match or exceed your efforts to work on yourself with his own efforts to help you, Larry is your guy.

I am lucky to be paired with Larry. He’s got great perspective that he shares readily, tools and documents that he follows up with so I can reference throughout the week, and the innate ability to make the space comfortable, despite the virtual and deeply personal nature of our conversations. I’m glad I signed up to work on myself and that Larry is who I’m working with.
