About Garrick
Garrick Lawton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, grief, depression, and anger. He focuses on improving self-esteem and helping people adjust to major life changes. He speaks English and works with adults seeking steady, practical support.
Garrick uses clear, straightforward methods in sessions. He starts by listening to each person's story and identifying their strengths. Then he and the client pick skills and strategies that fit daily life.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to build small, sustainable changes rather than quick fixes. His approach draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. He also uses acceptance and commitment techniques to help people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values.
Cognitive behavioral tools and dialectical behavior strategies are added when useful for managing thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Garrick has eight years of professional experience as an LPC in Georgia. He works with a wide range of concerns including attachment issues, codependency, communication and control problems, body image, dissociation, and relationship breakups.
He also supports people facing domestic violence, addiction recovery, and the effects of trauma and disasters. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Therapy is provided through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions based on the therapist's availability.

Online support
How attachment and acceptance work online
Attachment-based therapy looks at how early bonds shape current patterns. In online sessions this means talking through relationship histories and noticing how those patterns show up now, then trying new ways of interacting and relating. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and then take steps that match personal values; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and recovery from addiction. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels understood and can find their own solutions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Garrick will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. That might mean using attachment ideas to reframe a problem, ACT exercises to build values-based action, or CBT and DBT skills for emotion regulation. The plan is adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and detailed skill work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or for a daytime check-in. Live chat and text messaging make it simple to get short support between sessions or to track steps and practice skills in real time.
