Background

About Larry Lawson

I have over 30 years experience helping people solve all kinds of relationship problems, including marital conflicts, troubled and difficult children, domestic violence, child abuse, divorce, and child custody. My career has been a parallel process, starting off as a child welfare caseworker and returning once again after graduate school before opening a private practice. Child welfare and child protection are my foundation with a lot of exposure and experience helping children, parents and families work through great difficulties. After 20 years in a field office as a worker and supervisor, I began pursuing clinical supervision and moonlighting as a clinician/counselor/therapist. My focus has always been working with all types of family relationships. I currently run Connections Counseling Center to help clients work through relationship conflicts. I help create better human connections by working with people in all types of relationships. My specialties include- Counseling for unsatisfying and problem relationships: couples, families, children - How to navigate and cope with the emotional and legal processes of divorce - Child Custody issues (including evaluations for couples unable to reach an agreement on parenting arrangements)- Mediation of family disputes: child custody in divorce, dealing with aging parents - Therapy for a variety of mental health issues and crisis needs and relationship difficulties - Visitor report services for Probate Court matters.
