About Lance

Lance Nabers is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) and licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 20 years of clinical experience. He practices from Texas and has worked with people in other states, bringing a wide view of life circumstances to sessions.

He focuses on everyday problems that pile up and become overwhelming. That includes stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship struggles, grief, and parenting strain. He also helps people facing chronic illness, caregiving burdens, body image concerns, and career crossroads.

Sessions tend to be practical and down-to-earth. He listens first, then helps people name what matters and set small, doable goals. Methods draw on cognitive behavioral ideas, acceptance work, and attachment perspectives to shift habits, thoughts, and patterns that get in the way.

People often come for help with communication, social anxiety, intimacy worries, or trouble sleeping. He also supports those managing mood conditions like bipolar or long-term trauma recovery. Work in therapy can include skill practice, values-based planning, and checking how changes fit daily life.

Lance aims to create a nonjudgmental space where clients can try new ways of coping. He treats each person as the expert on their life and partners with them to build resilience. To begin, readers can use the site Start Therapy button to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a session.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, chronic illness adjustment, and motivation challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication, and it often helps with intimacy issues, relationship conflict, and attachment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences. Sessions can include skill practice, values clarification, behavior experiments, and checking how changes play out in everyday life.
