About Kate Lawrance
Kate Lawrance is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina who brings seven years of clinical experience to her practice. She works with people facing a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, anger, career questions, and ADHD, as well as related issues such as communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, life purpose concerns, panic attacks, self-harm, women's issues, workplace difficulties, and young adult transitions. Kate uses solution-focused interventions to help clients set and reach concrete goals, and she tailors her work to each person’s unique needs and circumstances.
Her approach is rooted in person-centered theory, creating a supportive, non-judgmental environment in which the client directs the pace and focus of therapy.

Kate can also incorporate motivational interviewing and creative methods like art therapy when those options fit a client's preferences. She frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at empowering people to make meaningful changes and move toward a more fulfilling life.
As an LCMHC, Kate holds a professional license for clinical mental health counseling and applies evidence-informed strategies while adapting to each client's goals and values.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Kate commonly uses client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and existential therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a supportive, non-judgmental relationship in which the client guides the pace and focus of sessions, helping individuals explore their feelings and priorities in a way that feels natural to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and provides practical strategies for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, or unhelpful patterns. Existential therapy invites clients to examine questions of meaning, choice, and the ways fear and anxiety influence life decisions, which can be helpful when facing transitions or questions about purpose.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kate collaborates with each person to identify methods that align with their goals, values, and preferences. She tailors techniques over time so therapy remains responsive and relevant.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls or phone appointments, and many clients find value in shorter live chat or text-based messaging between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists regardless of location within the state.
