About Vicki
Vicki Lannerholm is a licensed counselor who blends humanistic care with practical psychological tools. She brings 15 years of clinical experience and writes plainly about helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and ADHD-related struggles. Vicki uses clear, step-by-step strategies to help clients make daily life feel more manageable.
Her approach centers on the person in front of her rather than on labels. Sessions focus on understanding patterns of thinking and behavior, then practicing changes that fit real life.
Background and approach
She draws on client-centered work to listen deeply and build on each person’s strengths. Cognitive-behavioral techniques are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Mindfulness practices help ground attention and reduce reactivity.
Emotionally-focused ideas guide work on relationship and intimacy concerns when emotion patterns drive conflict. Vicki also connects psychological concepts to practical learning. She emphasizes psychoeducation so people understand why certain habits recur and what steps can shift them.
That teaching angle comes from long experience in clinical settings and as a college adjunct instructor. Her background includes roles in behavioral management, faith-based counseling, corporate and public mental health settings, and work across several states. Vicki holds LPCC and LPC credentials and practices from Michigan.
She speaks English and Swedish and offers online formats to fit different schedules.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work
Vicki uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral techniques in her online practice. Client-centered therapy means sessions begin with careful listening so the client’s goals guide the work; this helps when someone needs empathetic support and clear priorities for change. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, or manage ADHD-related daily challenges.She also brings mindfulness practices into sessions to help with attention, stress, and emotional regulation. These are short, practical exercises that can be practiced between meetings to build steady habits. Choosing an approach is collaborative - she will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit their life, and adjust the plan as progress is observed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill teaching and emotion-focused work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief coaching, checking progress, or keeping momentum between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
