About Lee

Her style is warm and interactive, and she aims to make sessions feel like a helpful conversation rather than a lecture. With 15 years of experience, Lee Anne blends several well-established methods to suit each person’s needs.

Background and approach

She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build new skills. She also uses attachment-informed ideas to look at how early relationships shape present struggles. When trauma is involved, she may include EMDR to address distressing memories.

Her approach begins with listening closely and building a clear plan together. Sessions emphasize simple tools you can try between meetings, such as coping strategies and communication practices. Lee Anne adapts pace and techniques based on response, focusing on what helps in everyday life.

Lee Anne holds licensure in Colorado and Texas - CO LPC 5815 and TX LPC 71556 - and brings training in multiple therapies. She works in English and offers sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Cost varies depending on location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Lee Anne uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people spot thought patterns that fuel anxiety or depression and to practice new coping skills that reduce symptoms in daily life. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and connections, which can help with communication and intimacy-related worries.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lee Anne begins by listening to what matters most, then suggests methods that match goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adapts the plan so therapy stays useful and relevant to each person’s situation.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. These options let people fit sessions around family, work, and other responsibilities while keeping treatment consistent. Many clients find that a mix of formats helps them practice skills in real time and stay connected between meetings.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
