About Lawrence

Lawrence "Lance" Bischoff welcomes people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin. He aims to offer respect and practical help for everyday struggles. Lance is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - LCPC with 16 years of counseling experience, and he works with concerns commonly faced by men and others seeking clearer direction.

He keeps sessions simple and focused on what can help right now. Lance listens for patterns in a person’s story and helps connect the dots so problems feel more manageable. He favors straightforward conversation and checks in often to make sure the work stays useful.

Over a career spanning more than a decade, Lance has worked with a wide range of issues including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, parenting strain, sleep problems, anger, career challenges, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and life transitions. He also attends to topics such as abandonment, isolation, guilt, multicultural concerns, and veteran-related issues.

Therapeutically he draws on approaches like client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, and other evidence-informed tools. He adapts techniques to fit each person rather than applying a fixed formula.

Lance prefers video sessions and has experience working with clients inside and outside the United States. He describes his work as practical and goal-oriented, helping people build new habits and clearer perspectives for handling stress and change.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Client-centered therapy places your concerns and goals at the center of sessions. The therapist listens without judgment and helps you shape the work to match your needs and values, which can help with relationship and self-esteem issues.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses clear exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change unhelpful habits.

Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, teaches practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These tools are useful for intense mood swings, anger, and relationship stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first and will adjust as progress is made. Clients help set goals and check that techniques feel helpful and doable.

Confirm the exact session options before booking. The biography notes a preference for video sessions, and this can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, take a shorter check-in during a break, or meet without traveling. If you need different arrangements, ask about current offerings when you schedule.
