About Larry
LICSW in Minnesota with 38 years of clinical experience, Larry Blair focuses on stress, anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. He works from the view that clients know their own story and that their strengths matter. Larry emphasizes practical steps and steady progress rather than quick fixes. He speaks English and practices in Minnesota as an LICSW.
Larry helps people talk through what feels overwhelming. He uses methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy to help someone notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. He also draws on Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy when the aim is clearer decision making or short-term problem solving.
Sessions focus on what the person wants to change. Conversations may include noticing thoughts and feelings, testing new ways of acting, and setting small, doable goals. For people who have faced trauma, the work moves at a pace the person can manage and looks at safety and coping first.
Larry often supports people managing caregiver stress, relationship communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and issues around money or work. He also addresses abandonment concerns, isolation, and social anxiety. His approach is practical and goal-oriented while keeping attention on each persons values and strengths.

How his approaches guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to the person and taking small actions toward those values. It helps with anxiety, stress, and low motivation by shifting attention from struggling with thoughts to living more intentionally.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses practical exercises and experiments to change patterns that maintain anxiety or depression. Mindfulness Therapy supports noticing the present moment and reducing reactivity to difficult feelings. Together these approaches aim to increase skills people can use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and how prior attempts have worked. They then pick methods to try and adjust them as progress or new needs emerge. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.
The therapist's session formats are not specified here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it simpler to continue work across life changes while using the clinical approaches above to focus on practical steps and coping skills.
