Dr. Lanecha Conner , LCPC, LPC

Dr. Lanecha Conner is a licensed mental health clinician with nine years of experience. She helps adults who seem to have it together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained inside. She focuses on practical support so people can breathe easier and find clearer footing in daily life.

Her sessions use a semi-structured, compassionate style. She slows the pace to help clients name what they are carrying. Then she and the client build straightforward tools to manage stress and anxiety in real situations.

Dr. Conner draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. She uses these approaches to challenge limiting beliefs, reorder difficult thoughts, and reframe stories that keep people stuck. The aim is steadier mood, clearer choices, and stronger self-trust.

She commonly addresses relationship strain, self-esteem struggles, coping with life changes, grief, addiction-related concerns, and trauma and abuse. Additional areas of focus include parenting and intimacy-related issues, communication problems, and concerns tied to adoption and foster care or veteran experiences.

Sessions are offered in English and are conducted online using phone, video, live chat, or text messaging. Dr. Conner is licensed as an LCPC in Illinois and holds an LPC credential in Georgia. Her approach suits people wanting practical change along with deeper reflection.

How her approaches translate to online care

Dr. Conner uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT offers concrete strategies for anxiety, stress, and mood shifts that clients can practice between sessions.

She also uses Narrative Therapy to help clients rewrite personal stories that cause shame or stuckness. That approach helps people see alternative meanings and choose different actions in relationships and work.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each client about goals and preferences, and then try methods that fit their situation. Adjustments are made over time based on what is helpful.

Online therapy provides flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be useful when less bandwidth is available, live chat supports short check-ins, and messaging works well for ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep working on change from wherever the client is.
