About Lanette
Lanette Bryant is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Maine with four years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, substance use, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, grief, anger, and related concerns including codependency. Lanette uses direct talk and steady support to help people sort through pressing problems and next steps.
She favors straightforward conversation over jargon. Sessions are a place to say what is hard to say and to notice patterns that keep repeating. Lanette uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and DBT to help people manage strong emotions and reduce unhelpful thinking.
She also draws on client-centered therapy and motivational interviewing to help people clarify what matters to them and to build momentum for change. Mindfulness exercises are offered when they fit a person’s goals as a way to calm the body and focus attention.
Lanette aims for a respectful, honest working relationship. She asks questions, listens, and offers concrete steps to try between sessions. Many people come for help with people-pleasing, setting clearer boundaries, coping with a partner’s drinking or mood swings, or moving through shame and grief.
Her practice is practical and down-to-earth. New clients complete a short questionnaire and then schedule an initial session to review concerns and plan next steps. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How her clinical approaches inform online work
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s concerns first through attentive listening and open questions. It helps when someone needs to be understood and to organize their own priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical exercises to shift patterns that cause distress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can help when emotions feel overwhelming.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lanette works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences. She will discuss what to try first and adjust the plan as progress and obstacles appear.
Please confirm available session options before booking, as the biography does not specify formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people use exercises and homework in the context of everyday life. Talk with her during the first meeting about practical needs like session length, scheduling, and whether phone or video is preferred so you can find an arrangement that fits your routine.
