He helps adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, addiction, and major life shifts. He focuses on clear, practical steps in sessions. Conversations often center on improving communication, managing strong feelings, and building daily routines that make life easier. He pays attention to how past relationships and attachment patterns shape present behavior. Lance uses methods that help people notice what matters and take small, workable steps. He helps clients identify values, reduce unhelpful thinking, and try new coping skills.

How therapy approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and making lasting life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood. It often includes homework and skills practice between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional reactions, which can be helpful for intimacy, grief, and relationship concerns. Choosing the right approach is part of the work itself. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try methods together, and adjust what they do based on what helps. This is a collaborative process that aims to match tools to the client’s needs and pace. The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online therapy useful because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Online sessions can make it easier to practice skills in real-life settings and maintain continuity across moves or travel. Licensed professionals can help adapt ACT, CBT, or attachment-focused work to an online setting, focusing on exercises and steps clients can use between meetings.
