About Lance

Lance Nabers is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) and a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 20 years of experience. He practices in Texas and has worked with people across several states. He lists stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, addiction, and social anxiety among the concerns he addresses.

Lance focuses on practical conversation and skills rather than jargon. He helps people talk through communication problems and relationship dynamics. He also supports clients managing life transitions, addictive behaviors, and difficulties with mood and sleep.

His work draws on several well-known approaches, including cognitive behavioral strategies and acceptance-based ideas. He uses these methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors in everyday life. Sessions often include clear tools and small experiments to try between meetings.

Attachment-based ideas inform his attention to how past relationships affect current ones. That perspective is used to look at patterns in intimacy, abandonment, and family-related concerns. He also uses skills from dialectical behavior therapy to help with emotional regulation and coping under pressure.

Lance aims to make therapy straightforward and practical. He supports people dealing with grief, caregiving strain, body image concerns, ADHD, and complex medical or chronic conditions. For those unsure where to begin, he helps set clear goals and small steps toward change.

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values. It helps people choose actions that matter to them even when anxiety or doubt shows up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical exercises to change patterns that cause distress. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people shift repeating dynamics in close relationships.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to match methods to goals and preferences, trying techniques and adjusting what is used based on what helps. That process is gradual and based on ongoing feedback.

Session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a workday or caregiving schedule, require less travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Others prefer longer sessions to practice skills. Discussing scheduling needs at the start helps shape a plan that fits everyday life.
