Lana Kamer

Lana Kamer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan with 15 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and family-related concerns. Lana also focuses on issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family challenges, and body image concerns.

She uses straightforward, talk-based sessions to identify what feels stuck and what matters most now. Sessions often include practical tools to manage anxiety and depressive symptoms and ways to improve communication with others. Lana leans on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot patterns of thinking that get in the way of daily functioning.

Her work also draws on client-centered principles that prioritize the person's perspective and narrative therapy techniques that help people reframe difficult life stories. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods are used when clients want short-term changes or clearer next steps. These approaches are mixed to match what the person brings to the room.

Lana commonly helps people who feel adrift after a life change, like a separation or a career shift, and those carrying wounds from earlier relationships. She supports people who need help sorting grief, coping after abuse, or managing family-of-origin issues. The focus is on practical steps, clearer choices, and better communication skills.

People working with Lana can expect direct conversation, goal-oriented planning, and a steady check on progress. To start, prospective clients follow the site's matching and scheduling process that leads to a first session.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's perspective and values. It involves listening closely and reflecting what matters most to the person, which helps when someone feels unsure about next steps or purpose.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, behaviors and mood. It teaches practical skills to test unhelpful thoughts and to change patterns that keep stress and anxiety active, which can be useful for day-to-day coping.

Motivational interviewing supports people who are ambivalent about change. It uses conversational techniques to clarify what someone wants and to build momentum toward small, manageable steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide what methods to try based on goals, preferences and how problems show up in everyday life. That decision can shift over time as progress is checked and new needs appear.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find that talking from their own routine helps them apply new skills between meetings.
