About Lana

Lana Kamer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma and family-related concerns. Lana often supports people navigating big life transitions and difficult relationships.

She favors practical, conversational work. Sessions usually focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, building clearer communication, and developing steps that feel doable day to day. Lana uses approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide those conversations.

Many clients come for help after a breakup, during career change, or when past hurt keeps showing up in current relationships. Lana pays attention to how family history and adoption or foster experiences shape current reactions. She also addresses problems like codependency, body image struggles, and eating-related concerns.

Her work includes supporting people who face domestic violence, control issues, or the impact of trauma and abuse. Lana also helps with forgiveness, grief after loss, and the strain that comes with caring for aging relatives. First responder stress and blended family challenges are part of her experience.

Sessions are aimed at small, practical moves toward clearer choices and calmer responses. Lana helps people practice communication skills and plan next steps. To begin, readers should confirm current session options before booking and follow the site’s process to match and schedule a first appointment.

How Lana’s approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients feel understood and can name what matters most. It helps with building confidence and talking through relationship and identity concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses small experiments to change unhelpful patterns; it is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lana will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying a strategy and adjusting it until it helps the client make clearer choices and feel more in control of daily challenges.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Some approaches lend themselves to exercises between sessions, homework, and focused skill practice that translate well to remote meetings, but confirm which session formats are currently offered when you schedule.
