About Lance
Lance Lashley is a licensed clinical social worker who practices in New Mexico and Iowa. He brings six years of experience to sessions and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. He also supports those navigating LGBT and relationship concerns.
Lance aims to meet people where they are and build a straightforward plan together. People can expect a respectful and down-to-earth approach. Lance says he tailors conversations and treatment to each person's needs.
Background and approach
He listens for what matters most, then suggests practical steps to try between sessions. Progress is framed as a series of small, achievable changes rather than a single quick fix. In sessions he uses a mix of approaches, choosing what fits the situation.
That can mean working on thoughts and behaviors that get in the way, learning skills to manage strong emotions, or focusing on concrete solutions when a quick change is the goal. He also draws on longer-term ways of understanding patterns that repeat in relationships.
Lance works with a wide range of concerns beyond mood and anxiety, including substance use, body image, chronic health challenges, and problems with money or isolation. He pays attention to how past experiences shape current struggles and offers clear steps to try in daily life. Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
He encourages people who are ready to take the next step to fill out the short questionnaire and schedule a time to meet.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches meet you online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It helps when anxiety or depression makes daily tasks harder by teaching concrete tools to test and shift thinking patterns.DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes skills for handling intense emotions and improving communication. It can be helpful for people who struggle with regulation, impulsive actions, or frequent conflicts in relationships.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused way to support change. It is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about making a change, including when addressing substance use or other health behaviors.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan over time. That collaborative process helps make sessions feel relevant and usable.
Online therapy with this clinician is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let people share thoughts between sessions or check in when they cannot be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to try different formats until the right one is found.
