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, addictions, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, LGBT issues, family concerns, grief, and anger. Lanette aims to help people who are worn down by recurring frustration or by other people's strong reactions.

She uses plain conversation and practical skills to make sessions useful. She listens to how anger shows up in daily life and works with people to identify patterns that make things worse. Sessions include goal-focused discussion and concrete steps to try between meetings.

Her background centers on approaches that promote clearer thinking and stronger coping. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice thoughts that fuel anger and test different responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers steadier ways to handle intense emotions. Mindfulness work supports noticing sensations before they escalate.

Lanette also draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to keep the work collaborative. That means she helps people set goals and moves at a pace they can manage. She pays attention to how trust and connection affect progress.

People who contact her will find direct talk about what triggers their anger, step-by-step skills to reduce reactivity, and practical plans for real situations. To begin, clients complete a short matching form and schedule an initial appointment.

How therapy approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful working relationship. It helps when someone needs to talk through triggers and feel heard while setting realistic goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down the thoughts and actions that feed anger and teaches practical experiments to try between appointments. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for intense moments and repeated patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals and daily life. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together as progress is tracked.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins when needed. Phone sessions may use less bandwidth and be suited to short updates, while video sessions let a therapist notice body language and tone. Talk with the clinician about what will work best for your schedule and circumstances.
