About Alane

Alane Roath, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri, brings 23 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and addictions, using approaches she lists such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

Roath focuses on practical, conversational therapy. Sessions are collaborative and aim to identify current problems, build coping strategies, and improve communication. She notes work on mood disorders, grief, self-esteem, and struggles tied to identity, including LGBT and gender dysphoria concerns.

Her background includes long-term clinical practice helping people with attachment and abandonment issues. She also lists experience supporting caregivers, first responders, and those facing cancer or serious medical stress. Codependency, family of origin issues, and divorce or separation are part of her stated focus areas.

Therapeutic style is described as client-centered and collaborative. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thoughts and behaviors, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to explore relationship patterns. Existential themes such as life purpose appear in her stated approaches.

Practical goals in sessions include symptom reduction, clearer communication, and better day-to-day coping. Roath indicates work on compulsions, obsessions, bipolar conditions, and compassion fatigue. Prospective clients in Missouri should confirm session formats and scheduling options before booking.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take actions that match those values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and getting unstuck from avoidance patterns. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can make their own choices. It can be useful for building self-esteem and processing difficult emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills for changing patterns. CBT is commonly applied to anxiety, mood disorders, and obsessive-compulsive issues. Choosing an approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels helpful, then recommend options from the approaches she uses. That collaborative process helps match the method to the client’s needs. Confirm available session options before booking because the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow a shorter check-in when that's helpful. Licensed professionals often use these options to maintain regular contact and build momentum toward goals.
