About Horace

Horace Lackey is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas with 31 years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family dynamics, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, addictions, grief, intimacy-related struggles, anger, self-esteem problems, depression, and ADHD.

Background and approach

He brings decades of practice to conversations about attachment, codependency, commitment and fatherhood issues, as well as questions about life purpose, isolation, guilt and shame. His background includes extensive work with family of origin and other family problems, and he draws on a broad set of tools to meet clients where they are.

Horace blends client-centered principles with cognitive behavioral techniques to create a supportive but active therapeutic presence. He emphasizes careful listening, a nonjudgmental stance, and collaborative challenge to help clients build practical skills and emotional insight.

His approach also incorporates elements of attachment-focused work and trauma-informed methods such as EMDR when appropriate, aiming to help people face difficult experiences and move toward the life they want. He welcomes an engaged therapeutic partnership and encourages those ready to do the hard work to reach out.

Integrating Attachment Work and CBT in Online Therapy



Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relational patterns shape current emotional responses and close relationships; it helps people explore connection, trust, and patterns that repeat in adult life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers concrete tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that supports processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional intensity when appropriate.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to the client's goals and preferences, discuss how different methods may help, and adapt the plan as progress unfolds. That partnership aims to match interventions to the client's needs rather than prescribing a single path from the start.

Online formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility for scheduling and access from home or work. These options allow ongoing engagement with evidence-informed approaches while accommodating busy lives and geographic constraints, making it easier to maintain continuity of care and consistent therapeutic work.
