Hello, you came here with the first courageous step! And , I am sure you want respect, restoration, reassurance from your therapist. I am humbly grateful to earn that trust if you choose to work with me.
My schedule is wide open due to a recent return from overseas. I have been on the Better Help platform over a number of years and enjoy both US and foreign-based clients!
Clients have told me they appreciate my candor and narrative style. For me, it is about connecting the dots and clarifying new views that are healing, relevant, practical and timely.
My background of 15+ years in counseling has covered the gamut of typical and difficult situations and mental health challenges. I believe that desire and belief are keys to success! Also, I believe in making the process simpler and focused more on today, results, the doable!
My toolkit has all the buzzword techniques you've likely heard of, but it is not the theory that makes my approach work - it is tailoring our work to what is helpful to YOU! We are the same, and we are different. I am adaptable and check in as to what is working for you!
With the holidays coming, let's be proactive to rebalance where you are! I am honored to be here for you! Let's start right away!
I prefer helping you on video sessions. Chat seems more impersonal in my approach. I hope that works for you!
Finally, FYI, I graduated at the top of my class with broad exposure to systems theory and dynamics. I use an eclectic approach with realistic tools and insights to fit the newer science proving we are not stuck, and the brain can "rewire" to handle stress signals differently.
Very exciting for all of us!
Respectfully,

Lance helped me feel safe and comfortable discussing topics that I had trouble even thinking about, as well as providing me with strategies (that actually work) to help me work through these issues. He is caring, kind, and very supportive. I really enjoyed working with him!

I honestly don’t even know where to begin because working with Lance has completely changed my life. When I first started, I felt heavy, stuck, and like I was carrying the weight of everything alone. From day one, he made me feel safe, seen, and genuinely cared for. He has this calm, grounded energy that made it easy for me to open up in ways I never have before.
He didn’t just listen — he really heard me. He challenged me when I needed it, held space for me when I was falling apart, and helped me reconnect with parts of myself I had lost along the way. The tools, insights, and perspective he’s given me have made such a difference in how I show up for myself and the people I love.
I feel more at peace, more empowered, and way more in tune with what I need and deserve in this life. I’ll forever be grateful for this chapter of my healing journey with him.

Lance has been an excellent therapist, he is good at listening and gives great advice about friends and relationships. I have felt less anxious, and have reduced my bad thoughts since Lance has been my therapist. For example, when a physiotherapist was body shaming me, he was able to re-direct my negative thoughts into a positive direction. I recommend Lance Bischoff to anyone looking for someone to talk to.
