About Larry

Larry Eubanks is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with more than 26 years working in social work and mental health. He draws on a person-centered foundation to meet clients where they are, helping them name and process emotions while teaching practical coping skills.

Background and approach

Early in his career he worked with families facing abuse and neglect, and since 2011 he has provided care across inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. His clinical toolkit includes Internal Family Systems alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered approaches, with additional use of acceptance and commitment and dialectical behavior strategies when appropriate.

This range allows him to tailor interventions to concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family problems, grief, addictions, ADHD, and a wide array of life transitions and stressors. Larry emphasizes flexible care and practical skills clients can use between sessions, and he aims to create collaborative treatment plans grounded in real-world needs.

Based in Alabama, he offers multiple online formats to increase access and adapt to clients' schedules. He brings decades of frontline experience and a focus on helping people develop tools to navigate difficult emotions and improve day-to-day functioning.

Integrating therapeutic methods for online care

Internal Family Systems (IFS) invites people to explore the different parts of their inner experience, helping them understand conflicted feelings and build more compassionate self-leadership; it can be useful for working with trauma, relational patterns, and internal conflict. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical ways to notice thoughts and feelings without getting entangled in them while clarifying values and committed action, which often helps with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, unconditional regard, and a collaborative relationship so clients can lead the pace of change and develop self-trust.

Deciding which approach fits best is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to assess goals, preferences, and current needs and will adapt methods over time so treatment remains relevant and effective for the person's circumstances.

Online care with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for scheduling and for choosing the communication style that feels most comfortable. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity during life changes, and access licensed professionals without travel, while allowing therapists to use the same therapeutic approaches they would in person.
