Lee Anne Smith, LPC

Lee Anne Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of clinical experience. She offers a warm, interactive style and aims to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. Lee Anne approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

Her work often addresses trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, ADHD, addictions, and problems with self-esteem and intimacy. She also helps people who are navigating grief, relationship conflict, or shifts in identity. Midlife crisis is one of the areas she lists among her focuses and she supports people facing transitions at that stage of life.

Lee Anne blends several therapeutic approaches to tailor care to each person. She uses client-centered listening to build trust, cognitive-behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, and EMDR when trauma processing is needed. She may also draw on attachment-based ideas and skills from dialectical behavior therapy when relevant.

Sessions emphasize practical skills and steady progress. People can expect clear goals, concrete tools for coping, and space to talk through difficult feelings. Lee Anne adapts the pace and methods to what each person needs.

She is licensed to practice in Colorado and Texas and conducts work in English. To begin, clients follow the site's intake steps and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Approaches that work well online and in sessions

Lee Anne uses client-centered therapy to focus first on listening and understanding each person's story, which helps build trust and sets goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) provides clear steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as a way to process traumatic memories when that is appropriate.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made and circumstances change.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. People often choose remote work because it can fit into busy days, reduce travel time, and make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins when needed. Online sessions can also allow steady continuity of care through life transitions and help maintain momentum between in-person visits when those are used.
