As a counselor, I strive to provide a space where my clients feel heard and supported.

I am passionate about helping clients heal from traumatic events and re-establish safety and connection within their bodies and in their relationships.
I am trained in EMDR (Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy to support my clients’ healing process. I also integrate DBT and mindfulness techniques to help clients approach their internal experiences in a nonjudgmental, compassionate manner and live their life in accordance with their values and beliefs.
If you are ready to begin your counseling journey, I'm here to support you. You deserve to live a healthy, fulfilling life.

In 2001, one week after finishing my master's degree, I sold everything I owned and moved my wife and three kids to a remote island in Alaska to start my career. I've been all-in ever since.
I'm Lance Nabers, M.S., LPC-S, LMHC, and I've spent 25 years helping over 24,000 people find their way back to themselves—from remote fishing villages in Alaska to federally qualified health centers, foster care systems, wilderness therapy programs, and crisis co-response work across eight states. A former Chief Behavioral Health Officer and Statewide Clinical Director, I'm now a telehealth therapist and LPC-S clinical supervisor licensed in TX, CO, WA, HI, and ID. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, addiction, life transitions, and couples therapy. Real experience. Real results. On your terms.
My therapeutic approach is comprehensive and compassionate, addressing a wide range of emotional and psychological experiences. I specialize in helping individuals navigate issues such as stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma, sobriety, and personal growth. My work often focuses on 'life transitions or conflict,' and 'finding opportunity or acceptance.
The first session is a conversation focused on what brings you to therapy, your current concerns and relevant history, how therapy works, and what feels most important to you. I hope to create a calm, grounded environment where you feel heard, respected, and not rushed. By the end, we'll outline goals and next steps so you leave with clarity and direction.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a specialized psychotherapeutic approach that focuses on assisting individuals in processing traumatic memories, diminishing their emotional intensity, and facilitating the integration of the traumatic experience into their past, enabling them to progress in their lives. This process follows four steps: history-taking, preparing the client, assessing the target memory, and processing the memory and finding an adaptive resolution. After this, Thriveworks EMDR therapists in San Antonio will continue to help individuals process the memory and evaluate the results of the treatment to ensure its effectiveness.
EMDR is primarily employed to aid individuals who have endured trauma, including those with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and who have experienced other distressing life events.
EMDR therapy is generally less suitable for individuals currently experiencing acute trauma or those who have not yet acquired fundamental coping and distress tolerance skills. To engage in EMDR therapy effectively, one must possess a certain degree of distress tolerance.
EMDR tends to be very effective in relieving the negative symptoms associated with trauma. In a study performed by Francine Shapiro called The Role of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy in Medicine: Addressing the Psychological and Physical Symptoms Stemming from Adverse Life Experiences (2014), results showed that after just three EMDR sessions, 84% of participants reported a remission of PTSD diagnosis. EMDR will often have a higher success rate for survivors of a single traumatic event than for those who have experienced repeated or multiple instances of trauma when EMDR is performed for the same amount of time. This is due to the increased intensity of the trauma and the need to process multiple events.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
If you’re looking for EMDR therapists in San Antonio, TX, you’re in luck. EMDR therapy at Thriveworks can be conducted both in person at one of our many offices around the U.S. and online via remote video conferencing. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Generally, EMDR is a shorter-term therapy, typically encompassing multiple sessions. While some individuals may make substantial progress within just a few sessions, others may opt for an extended treatment period, particularly if dealing with complex or severe trauma or conditions.
