About Lanecha

Dr. Lanecha Conner is a licensed clinician with nine years of experience helping adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained. She practices in Illinois and brings a calm, steady presence to sessions.

People often come when they are managing a lot and need a place to finally breathe. She uses a mix of Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide the work. In plain terms, that means she helps clients tell their story, notice patterns that cause distress, and build small, practical ways to cope.

Background and approach

Sessions are semi-structured but conversational, so people leave with concrete tools they can use right away. Dr. Conner focuses on a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, trauma, addictions, and self-esteem.

She also works with topics such as parenting strain, career pressures, blended family challenges, and identity questions related to LGBT experiences. Her additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, BDSM and kink contexts, and veteran-related concerns. Clients can expect a balance of listening and active guidance.

She slows things down to make sense of what’s happening and then practices steps that change daily life. The language in sessions is straightforward and practical, not full of technical terms. Dr.

Conner holds credentials as an LCPC and an LPC. She provides therapy in English and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging formats. The approach aims to strengthen self-trust and help people feel more like themselves again.

How Narrative and CBT translate to online therapy

Dr. Conner often combines Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. Narrative Therapy helps people examine the stories they tell about themselves and spot alternative, healthier narratives. It suits issues like identity questions, relationship patterns, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She treats the work as a collaboration and will help you decide which methods fit your goals and preferences. Sessions can shift over time so the plan reflects what’s actually helping you in day-to-day life.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let you work face-to-face when you want a deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is low or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat or text messaging work well for brief check-ins, coaching-style prompts, or when you want to write out thoughts between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, childcare, or busy schedules.
