About Lance

Lance Nabers is a licensed mental health counselor who brings 20 years of practice to his work. He holds LMHC and LPC credentials and sees people across different life stages. He works from Texas and has experience supporting clients in other states as well.

He focuses on common, everyday struggles like stress and anxiety. He also helps with addictions, grief, depression, bipolar challenges, and coping with big life changes. He addresses intimacy concerns, relationship patterns, and parenting stress in one-on-one sessions.

Lance uses several practical approaches to help people make small, steady changes. He draws on methods that encourage values-based action, stronger attachment patterns, and clearer thinking about behaviors and beliefs. In sessions he usually helps clients notice what matters, practice new skills, and track progress between meetings.

His work also covers areas such as aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image, ADHD, and adoption or abandonment concerns. He supports people dealing with career strain, compassion fatigue, and the emotional load of medical challenges.

Lance aims to build a respectful and nonjudgmental space. He helps people set realistic goals and tries to make therapy feel manageable. To begin, clients are asked to share where they are now and what they'd like to change, so together they can pick a clear path forward.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people name their values and take small steps toward them even when feelings are hard. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and dealing with big life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships influence current bonds and patterns, and it can help with relationship struggles and intimacy problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work and happens together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust as progress is tracked. This collaborative process helps find what feels most useful for each person.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They can also help when someone needs a simpler setup for audio-only conversations or wants sessions from a familiar place. Licensed professionals can use these options to support ongoing skill practice, values work, and relationship exploration without promising a particular format.
