About Kate

Kate Lawrance is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and women's issues. She also supports clients dealing with parenting challenges, career pressure, ADHD, addiction, grief, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Her approach is practical and problem-focused, aiming to help clients make changes that matter to their daily lives.

Kate uses a person-centered style that lets the client set the pace and shape of sessions. She often blends in cognitive behavioral ideas to look at how thoughts influence actions. She also draws on existential perspectives to help people name fears and find meaning when life feels uncertain.

Her work includes motivational interviewing to notice gaps between goals and actions, and she sometimes brings creative art-based methods when clients want a nonverbal way to express themselves. Sessions are tailored to each person rather than following one fixed method. Kate emphasizes collaboration and clear, manageable steps toward goals.

With seven years of experience in counseling settings, she frames therapy as a cooperative process. She aims to make sessions feel engaging and nonjudgmental while focusing on what the client wants to change. Kate describes it as a privilege to support people as they move toward a more satisfying life.

Approaches and how they work online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's pace so sessions reflect what matters most to the person. This approach helps people who need a supportive space to sort through feelings and set their own goals.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts and behavior and offers concrete tools to change unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and problems that benefit from skill practice between sessions.

Existential therapy helps people name fears, question life direction, and find meaning when things feel uncertain or empty. It can be helpful for big life changes and questions about purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of working together. The therapist will discuss options and recommend next steps based on the client's needs, goals, and preferences. Together they decide what methods to try and adjust the plan as work progresses.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It can allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or make it simpler to continue work during life transitions. Confirm available session formats before booking so you know how meetings will be scheduled and delivered.
