About Lannie
Lannie Cox is a licensed professional counselor who helps people who feel stuck and want change. He listens without judgment and offers encouragement while helping clients notice what isn’t working and try new ways forward. He uses straightforward techniques rather than gimmicks.
Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication. Lannie draws on tools from approaches such as the Gottman Method, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness to tailor work to each person’s needs.
Background and approach
Before counseling, he spent 15 years in corporate communications and public relations. That background informs how he helps people organize thoughts and set realistic goals. He earned a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from West Texas A&M University and holds the LPC credential.
Lannie aims to create a calm, down-to-earth setting where people can talk through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, grief, trauma, addictions, ADHD, and other life challenges. He also addresses issues like communication problems, commitment and infidelity, blended family dynamics, and fatherhood concerns. Sessions often focus on building skills for managing emotions, improving interactions, and making concrete changes.
He believes many answers come from inside the client and works to help people discover those solutions. Abbott, his Seeing Eye dog, sometimes lightens the mood during sessions. Background and approach include a mix of evidence-informed methods, practical coaching, and experience from both clinical training and corporate life.
The work is collaborative and aimed at finding what actually helps each person move forward.

Online support
Evidence-informed approaches for online therapy
Gottman Method work focuses on improving communication and interaction patterns. It offers concrete exercises and discussion techniques that help people notice how they relate and practice different responses to reduce conflict and build connection.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short, focused assignments to help change unhelpful thinking and build new habits that reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It teaches practical strategies like distress tolerance and emotion regulation that are useful during big life transitions or high-stress moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions can blend techniques so work stays practical and tailored to what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face-to-face and practice communication exercises. Phone sessions can be quicker check-ins or a lower-bandwidth option. Live chat and messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or written reflections between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy schedules.
