Larry O’Connor Marriage and Family Therapist

Larry is one of those rare therapists who doesn’t impose himself into the process too much. He has an admirable quality of listening carefully and learning your individual situation. Highly recommended!

I have known Larry for about eight years now, both personally, clinically, and professionally, and would and do highly recommend him. I’ve consulted with him as a fellow therapist, and he’s always perceptive and compassionate about those who he cares for. Well, and for me as friend and colleague. There are some therapists who, probably stylistically, are removed and even a bit chilly. Larry’s not one of those. Rather, he’s warm and very human, shares himself where it feels useful to his clients. He can be related to, rather than holding a kind of rigid pose, and so he feels available and interested in you and the nuances of, well, you. He’s constantly growing, too. He’s often told me about new thoughts, ways of deepening into his work, new readings or insights he’s had into how to help his clients. Not static or «settled in his ways,» quite alive. So I’m very happy to recommend Larry.

I’m pretty sure the two reviewers before me have covered all the bases you need to know.
Larry helped me through an extremely trying part of my life, and did so with a grace, compassion, and understanding that I think very few human beings could muster. And, not coincidentally, I think he really enjoys his work. If you need help with something, this should be your guy.

Gosh, how do I Unilocal an awesome therapist?!
Larry is an incredibly compassionate person that also happens to be a therapist. Perhaps that’s the «secret sauce.» Talking to Larry is always non-​threatening and you’re sure to feel safe talking about those not-​so-​pleasant things that brings you to a therapist’s office in the first place. Larry listens to you as a real person and the dialogue is never sterile or cold. Larry’s therapy style is traditional, yet genuinely warm and caring. I can personally say that my life has dramatically changed since I started working with him. Larry always encouraged me to teach… something I never thought of doing. Guess what? I began teaching in my field of interest and I am pursuing Master level credentials. Goals are now becoming realities. I can’t say enough good things about Larry. My only regret — someone beat me at being the first to Unilocal him here :)

I have spent the last year in supervision with Larry and have found his supervision advice not only to be helpful with regard to working with clinical material, but also with regard to my own professional development. Larry’s supervision advice and expertise is solidly rooted in his style of providing psychotherapy, and he is also flexible with regard to supporting the stylistic growth of his interns. I recommend connecting with Larry if you are looking for a knowledgeable, supportive supervisor who creates an environment where being authentic is not only acceptable but also important.

It is time that I let others out there know about an amazing therapist, Larry O’Connor! I immediately felt comfortable talking with Larry. He really puts you at ease and makes you feel safe right off the bat. I have never met a more compassionate or empathic therapist, and I have been to a handful of them over the years! Larry really treats you with integrity and the utmost respect. I never felt that I had to censor myself at all. He got me through some really tough times of severe depression and anxiety. He is accessible and very responsive; reliably calling back in a timely manner. He is also skillful in dealing with relationship issues. Working with Larry was a transformative experience for me and I feel honored to have had him as a therapist! Also, his prices are VERY reasonable, which says a lot considering the incredibly high price of therapy these days. I wish I could give him ten stars!!!
