With extensive experience working with physicians and other healthcare professionals, I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, burnout, trauma, and other mental health concerns so they can re-engage with what matters most to them.


Support for the People Others Rely On


If you’re a physician—or another healthcare professional such as a dentist, veterinarian, nurse practitioner, or physician assistant—you may be used to functioning at a high level no matter what’s going on internally.


You show up. You stay composed. You handle what needs to be handled.


And at the same time, you may feel:

  • anxious or mentally overloaded 
  • emotionally exhausted or disconnected 
  • stuck in overthinking or second-guessing 
  • overwhelmed by responsibility 
  • or like you’ve been carrying too much for too long without much space to process it 


I specialize in helping physicians and other high-achieving healthcare professionals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma-related stress, burnout, perfectionism, and chronic overwhelm through teletherapy available in North Carolina and all 40+ PSYPACT® states.

Therapy can be a place where you no longer have to keep holding it all together by yourself.



My Approach to Therapy: Practical, Insightful, and Grounded in Real Life


My approach to therapy is not only about providing a safe place to talk about what’s hard (though that deeply matters too)—it’s also about working together to better understand what’s keeping you stuck so you can begin responding differently.


In our work together, we may focus on:

  • Understanding patterns like over-responsibility, overthinking, and pushing past your limits 
  • Reducing anxiety and mental overload so your system doesn’t stay “on” all the time 
  • Processing difficult experiences from training, clinical work, or personal life 
  • Loosening perfectionism and internal pressure 
  • Building boundaries that actually hold 
  • Reconnecting with yourself outside of achievement 
  • Creating a more sustainable way of living and working 


Many of the people I work with are highly capable and deeply thoughtful.


They’re also tired of carrying so much alone.

About Me

Ilana Lane, Ph.D. - Licensed Psychologist

As a licensed psychologist with PSYPACT® authorization, I offer Telehealth services to clients in North Carolina and over 40 additional states. 

 

I specialize in working with anxious, high-achieving adults who feel overwhelmed, burned out, or disconnected from themselves under the weight of chronic stress and internal pressure.


Many of my clients are the people others rely on. They’re thoughtful, responsible, capable—and used to holding a lot. They also often don’t have many places where they get to stop being the one who has it together.


That’s part of what therapy can offer.


My style is warm, practical, and collaborative. I aim to create a space where you can be honest about what’s not working—without judgment or pressure to minimize your experience.

Together, we’ll work to better understand what’s contributing to your distress and help you move toward a life that feels more manageable, meaningful, and aligned with what matters most.

A MORE SUSTAINABLE PATH FORWARD

You may be used to pushing through, figuring it out, and handling things on your own. And you can still be good at that, while also recognizing that it’s no longer working the way it used to.


Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what you’ve been carrying, and begin relating to yourself with more clarity and less pressure.


If you’re looking for therapy for physicians or healthcare professionals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma-related stress, burnout, or chronic overwhelm, I’d be honored to support you.
