About Alane
Alane Roath is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Missouri who centers Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her work. She brings 23 years of experience helping people navigate strong emotions and difficult life moments. Her style is warm and collaborative, focused on listening and understanding each person's story.
She helps with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, addiction, and mood disorders such as bipolar.
Background and approach
Alane pays attention to attachment, abandonment, and family of origin issues that often shape current patterns. Her approach blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered techniques, and Existential ideas. That mix lets her work on emotions in the moment, clarify values, and build practical skills for coping.
Sessions aim to identify unhelpful patterns and try small, doable changes between meetings. Alane offers a space that affirms diverse identities and sexual orientations, and she addresses concerns related to gender dysphoria and LGBT issues. She also works with people facing caregiver stress, first responder strain, cancer-related challenges, codependency, and compassion fatigue.

How emotion-focused and evidence-based approaches work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name strong emotions and understand how those emotions affect relationships and choices. It is useful when patterns of reactivity or isolation get in the way of connection and personal well-being.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and committed action. It helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters to them, which can reduce avoidance and increase meaningful activity.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, obsessions, and mood challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences. Over time they adjust techniques based on what is and isn't helping.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is best for in-depth conversations and emotion work, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity when schedules change.
