hey there's not really a difference between them! it's just the way you use it in a sentence
"Lastimar" is a transitive verb which is often translated as "to hurt", and "doler" is an intransitive verb which is also often translated as "to hurt"
for example
"Ella lastimó mis sentimientos"
"Me duele pensar en los problemas" you could also say (Me lastima pensar en los problemas)
you see!? you just need to find the right words to accommodate the sentence and make it sound natural!

Son similares, doler es sentir algún tipo de dolor lastimar es un verbo que significa herir
podrías verlo como causa y consecuencia
Si lastimas a alguien se va a sentir herido, es decir, le va a doler
