About Drunay
Drunay "Dru" Collins Minch is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, intimacy questions, and big life changes. He brings a warm, person-centered manner to sessions and treats each person with respect and curiosity. He often works with people exploring identity and belonging in the LGBTQ community.
Sessions emphasize collaboration - the client is treated as the expert on their life while the counselor offers support and tools.
Background and approach
Drunay uses existential ideas to help people find meaning and make values-based choices during hard times. He also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance and commitment strategies to address thoughts, behaviors, and coping skills. Attachment-based and client-centered work shape how he builds a trusting conversation and attends to relational patterns.
That helps with intimacy, communication problems, and feelings tied to abandonment or attachment wounds. With four years of clinical experience, he focuses on practical steps clients can try between sessions. He frames therapy as a process of exploration, problem-solving, and gradual change rather than quick fixes.
Drunay practices in Texas and offers sessions in English. He accepts international clients and works through a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to make therapy fit into daily life.

Online support
Approach-focused care for online therapy
Existential Therapy helps people face questions about meaning, choice, and identity. It can be useful when major life changes, identity exploration, or long-term uncertainty feel overwhelming. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical ways to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while acting in line with personal values, which often helps with anxiety and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build healthier ways of relating, useful for intimacy and communication problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. Sessions are guided by what the client needs - sometimes more values-focused work, sometimes skill practice or exploring attachment patterns - and treatment adjusts over time.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow a standard therapy conversation when face-to-face interaction is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and messaging support shorter check-ins, journaling between sessions, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different lifestyles while keeping the focus on practical progress.
