About William

William Rusnak, LPC, brings a steady, person-centered approach to therapy. He focuses on helping people who feel stuck by guiding them to find their own answers. Sessions are practical and straightforward, aimed at making day-to-day life feel more manageable.

He uses an attachment-based perspective to understand how relationships shape feelings and behavior. That view is paired with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach skills for managing stress, anxiety, and mood problems.

Background and approach

Mindfulness strategies are also used to help people stay grounded in the moment. William has six years of clinical experience and holds Licensed Professional Counselor credentials in Texas and Arkansas. Before counseling, he worked in defense and telecommunications, which shaped his practical problem-solving style.

He also has personal experience caring for a spouse with dementia, and he understands grief, caregiver strain, and starting over. In sessions he focuses on clear goals and simple plans that make a difference between meetings. He helps people work through relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes.

Additional areas he supports include attachment issues, communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation, and social anxiety. He can include a Christian and Biblical perspective when appropriate and asked for. William offers sessions in English and practices in Arkansas while holding TX and AR LPC credentials.

Online support

Attachment and Skills-Based Care Online

William blends an attachment-based outlook with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address how relationships shape thoughts and feelings. Attachment-based work looks at patterns formed early in relationships and how they show up now, helping people understand trust, closeness, and fear of rejection. CBT focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, useful for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. Sessions may mix attachment insights with CBT or DBT techniques so the plan matches what the client wants to accomplish.

Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation when that matters, phone calls use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day, and messaging or live chat can serve as brief check-ins or for those who prefer writing. These options help people fit counseling into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while using approaches that focus on relationships, emotion skills, and practical change.
