About Lance

Lance Nabers is a licensed counselor with twenty years of clinical experience. He holds LMHC and LPC credentials and works with people on practical challenges like anxiety, stress, addiction, and relationship struggles. He practices from Texas and with clients across state lines.

He focuses on clear, down-to-earth work. In sessions he helps people name problems, spot unhelpful patterns, and try small changes that add up. He also addresses trauma, grief, eating and sleeping concerns, and issues around intimacy and self‑esteem.

Lance blends several therapeutic methods to match each person's needs. He uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches and acceptance-based work to change thinking and manage difficult feelings. He also uses attachment-informed ideas to look at how relationships shape behavior.

Clients can expect a calm, nonjudgmental space to talk through hard topics. He pays attention to life transitions, parenting stress, career concerns, and struggles tied to identity, including LGBTQ topics. He also works with people facing chronic illness, caregiving burdens, and complex grief.

Lance helps people navigate codependency, boundary issues, and recovery from addictive behaviors. He aims to build practical skills for coping and decision making. To begin, he asks about goals and crafts a plan that fits each person's life and pace.

How certain approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small, committed actions that move life forward, which can help with anxiety, depression, and codependency.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up in current connections. It helps people understand repeated interaction styles and try different ways of relating, which is useful for intimacy and relationship struggles.

Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person's experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's pace, making space for exploration and decision-making around recovery, identity, or life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that feel like the best fit. This is a collaborative process that may mix techniques from CBT, ACT, or attachment work based on what helps most.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow for check-ins that match real-life schedules. Some people prefer shorter phone or video check-ins to handle a quick crisis, while others use longer sessions for deeper exploration. Licensed professionals can adapt pace and focus to fit your life without promising a specific outcome.
