Lee joined the Garrett Counseling team in 2021! He is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC04927). He has a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Birmingham-Southern College and Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Jacksonville State University.
Lee enjoys working with teens and clients experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, or behavior concerns. When asked about his approach to counseling, Lee said, “I use an eclectic approach to counseling based on the individual’s needs and what works best for them. I find a lot of value in using therapeutic approaches from person-centered therapy, cognitive-behavioral (CBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I prioritize creating a warm, empathetic, and nonjudgmental space for my clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences while tailoring the individual needs to specific concepts and techniques from the different therapeutic approaches. I believe clients first need to feel safe, heard, and establish trust in the therapeutic relationship prior to working on specific issues and techniques. I encourage clients to explore themselves and their lives openly, utilize their personal strengths and values, and I offer additional perspective and ways to promote growth and healing.”
