01About Vickie
Vickie Lane is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and addictions. She creates a calm space where clients can talk honestly and start practical changes. Her manner is straightforward and supportive for people ready to try something different.
With 15 years of experience in Virginia, she helps with parenting concerns, relationship and family strain, and career challenges. She also works with people facing trauma, intimacy issues, anger, bipolar mood concerns, and ADHD.
Background and approach
Vickie addresses both immediate problems and ongoing patterns that get in the way of daily life. In sessions she listens first and uses what the person brings to guide the work. She draws on client-centered methods to build trust and on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and actions.
Mindfulness and dialectical skills are added when emotional regulation or stress reduction is helpful. She also uses motivational interviewing to support readiness for change, especially around substance use or other habits. The focus is on small, doable steps that fit a person’s life.
Vickie aims to help people build skills they can use outside of sessions. People who meet with her can expect clear goals, practical tools, and steady support. Conversations are direct but compassionate, and progress is checked as work continues.
This approach is meant to help clients make real, manageable changes over time.

04Online support
How evidence-based approaches work online
Vickie commonly uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship so people feel understood. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to talk through feelings and choices. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, actions, and feelings interact and uses practical exercises to change patterns that cause distress.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills when strong emotions or impulsive behavior are present. DBT-based skills teach ways to manage emotions, tolerate distress, and improve communication. Together these approaches offer both supportive listening and specific tools for coping and change. Choosing the right mix is collaborative - the therapist and client decide together what fits the client's goals and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation for deeper interaction. Phone sessions are useful if bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, homework, or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, parenting, or other routines.
