About Lani
Lani Ete is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, addiction concerns, and self-esteem challenges. She offers a straightforward, approachable style and focuses on practical steps people can use in daily life. Her warm manner aims to make it easier to talk about painful experiences and to begin change.
She grew up in Hawaii and completed an undergraduate degree in psychology through distance learning. She earned a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling in 2007 from the University of Phoenix. Lani has practiced online since the beginning of the COVID pandemic and draws on 17 years of experience in the field.
Lani uses a mix of methods to match what each person needs. She blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with person-centered care, brief work, and solution-focused strategies. She also pays attention to how past life events and relationships continue to affect the present.
In sessions she asks people to take an active role. That often means doing short assignments between meetings so progress continues outside of sessions. She asks clients to complete homework in a timely way so she can review it before the next meeting.
Lani emphasizes collaboration when setting goals. She aims to help people learn about themselves, process difficult experiences, and move toward choices that feel more intentional. She welcomes questions and hopes prospective clients feel comfortable reaching out to begin the matching process.
