About Lee-Andre

Lee-Andre Garvin is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Colorado with seven years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. He also addresses related concerns such as abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, attachment matters, and challenges tied to chronic illness or caregiving.

Lee-Andre takes a practical, collaborative approach. Sessions focus on talking through current problems, learning skills to manage symptoms, and identifying patterns that get in the way of feeling steady. He uses direct interventions alongside reflective conversation so clients can notice what helps and what does not.

His background includes a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Denver and work across the Front Range. He has experience in substance use recovery settings and in high-school and community mental health work. That experience shaped his approach to anxiety, depression, trauma, identity questions about race and gender, and complex presentations.

In sessions he combines techniques such as mindfulness practices from dialectical behavior therapy, art-based exercises, motivational interviewing, trauma-focused strategies, and talk therapy. The mix aims to give concrete tools and moments for deeper understanding. Lee-Andre frames therapy as a cooperative process where the client’s goals guide treatment choices.

People who come when they feel stuck after a job, relationship, or health change will find focused support for deciding next steps. Before booking, confirm current session options and practical details through the initial matching steps.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions

Lee-Andre draws on a few evidence-based techniques to address common problems like anxiety, trauma, and relationship distress. Mindfulness practices from dialectical behavior therapy help people notice reactions and use grounding skills during stress. Motivational interviewing techniques support people who are wrestling with change, helping them weigh options and strengthen commitment without pressure.

He also uses art-informed exercises to access feelings that can be hard to name. These activities can open different ways of understanding problems and make it easier to talk about difficult experiences. Deciding which approaches to use is a collaborative process; he works with each person to find what fits their goals and daily life.

Practical benefits of doing work online include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and keeping continuity when life is unpredictable. Because exact session formats are not listed here, confirm which options are currently offered before booking. Many people find online work easier to attend around jobs, medical appointments, or caregiving by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed.
