About Lola
Dr. Lola McGee is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 19 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and helping people cope with major life changes. Her work also addresses communication problems, isolation and loneliness, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and phobia, and women's issues.
She uses straightforward, skills-based approaches in sessions. That often means identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different ways of responding. She also draws on techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy when those methods fit a person’s needs.
Sessions aim to break problems into manageable steps. Clients can expect concrete strategies for managing strong emotions, handling social fears, and improving interactions with others. The focus is on what to try between meetings as well as in them.
Dr. McGee adapts how she works to each person’s situation. She explains options, checks in about what is helping, and adjusts plans as needed. Her approach keeps the therapist and client working together to set goals and measure progress.
To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The site lists current online therapy options to review before booking so people can confirm which session formats are offered.
How CBT, DBT, and trauma-focused care work online
Dr. McGee uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people recognize unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT focuses on practical exercises and short experiments to change patterns of thinking and behavior, which can help with anxiety, depression, and social fears.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for intense emotions and relationship stresses. DBT offers clear tools for managing strong feelings, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and building distress tolerance. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past trauma affects daily functioning and relationships; it emphasizes safety, processing, and skills to reduce symptoms.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means checking what helps, adjusting techniques, and setting practical goals together.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since formats are listed on the site for review. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and reduce travel time. The focus is on practical ways to apply skills in everyday situations rather than on a specific platform or technology.
