About Kate
Kate Lawrance is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. She has seven years of counseling experience helping people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and depression. Kate works with clients facing relationship strain, addiction concerns, parenting stress, and career changes.
She also supports people dealing with ADHD, trauma, and struggles with self-esteem. Her sessions are straightforward and goal-focused. Kate starts by listening without judgment and lets each person set the pace.
Background and approach
She often blends person-centered ideas with practical strategies so people leave with concrete steps to try between sessions. Kate uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients notice how thoughts affect behavior. She also draws on existential ideas to talk about meaning, choice, and the worry that can come with big life transitions.
Mindfulness practices are offered when helpful to manage overwhelming feelings and reduce reactivity. Sessions may include talking, brief exercises, and sometimes creative expression when a person wants a different way to process feelings. Kate tailors the approach to the individual rather than offering a one-size-fits-all plan.
The focus is on what will help someone make steady, manageable changes. People who work with Kate often want clear tools and support to handle day-to-day stress and strong emotions. She aims to help clients build skills, increase self-awareness, and move toward more balanced routines and relationships.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. Online sessions use that same stance - the therapist asks about what matters most and helps set the pace. This approach works well for people who want a supportive space to process feelings and make decisions.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. In online visits this often includes short exercises and agreed-upon homework to practice between meetings. CBT can be useful for managing anxiety, anger, panic symptoms, and low mood.
Mindfulness practices teach simple ways to notice sensations and calm the nervous system. These techniques can be practiced during a live session and then repeated at home to reduce reactivity and improve focus.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick reflections, tracking progress, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
