About Lee-Andre

Lee-Andre Garvin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. He offers straightforward, empathetic support and practical counseling aimed at everyday problems. Lee-Andre focuses on helping people find their own strengths and apply them to improve mental health.

He approaches therapy as a team effort. Sessions emphasize clear goals, coping skills, and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Lee-Andre draws on several evidence-based techniques and uses mindfulness, reflective talk, and creative methods when they fit the person’s needs.

Lee-Andre earned a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from the University of Denver and has seven years of practice on Colorado’s Front Range. His background includes work in substance abuse recovery, high-school settings, and community mental health. That work exposed him to a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, dissociation, and identity issues related to race and gender.

He also works with people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care history, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, attachment concerns, and body image. He can assist with topics related to kink and alternative sexual culture as well as codependency and blended family stress.

Therapy with Lee-Andre centers on collaboration. He supports clients as they identify goals, practice new skills, and test changes between sessions. People interested in starting are invited to begin the matching and scheduling process to see if his style feels like a fit.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online work

Lee-Andre uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in clear, practical ways. Mindfulness practice helps people notice stress and anxiety with less reactivity and build simple daily habits to reduce overwhelm. Trauma-focused work involves carefully paced conversations and grounding tools to help manage upsetting memories and responses without being overwhelmed.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. He works together with each person to pick methods that match their goals and comfort level. That collaborative planning lets the therapist adjust techniques over time if something doesn’t fit or life circumstances change.

The original biography does not list specific session formats. Confirm the available online options before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use practices and skills from real daily routines between sessions to support steady progress.
