Larry Eubanks, LICSW

Larry Eubanks is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) based in Alabama who uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and other life challenges. He draws on 26 years in social work and mental health to guide people toward clearer thinking and steadier coping skills.

He began his career working with families facing abuse and neglect. For more than a decade he worked in child welfare before moving into mental health in 2011. That mix of child welfare, inpatient, and outpatient work shaped his straightforward approach to care.

In sessions he focuses on helping people name and process emotions. He teaches coping strategies that clients can use between appointments. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered methods, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness techniques appear in his practice when they fit the person’s needs.

Larry emphasizes meeting people where they are. He aims to create a calm, steady space to work through relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, addiction concerns, sleep and eating issues, attention difficulties, and many other worries that affect daily life.

He also supports people dealing with family of origin problems, caregiver stress, chronic illness, divorce and separation, and control or communication problems. His experience includes both short-term focused work and longer-term support, depending on what a person needs.

Larry offers flexible session formats to match different schedules and lifestyles. He encourages clients to set goals together and to practice skills between meetings so progress can carry into everyday life.

Using CBT, ACT, and Client-Centered Work Online

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence. It helps with anxiety, depression, sleep and eating problems, and managing mood swings by teaching clear skills and behavioral experiments. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to commit to actions aligned with their values when life feels overwhelming.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and follows the client's pace. This approach supports people dealing with grief, trauma, relationship struggles, and identity concerns by creating space to talk and reflect. Larry uses these approaches flexibly and will work together with each person to choose what fits their goals and preferences.

Online sessions can take place via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people read facial cues and practice skills in real time, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits short check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or busy schedules while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
