About Lee-Andre
He draws on seven years of clinical experience across the Front Range. That work includes roles in substance abuse recovery, high school counseling, and community mental health settings. Those roles exposed him to a wide range of concerns, including mood disorders, trauma responses, identity issues related to race and gender, and co-occurring conditions.
In sessions he focuses on collaboration and building personal strengths. He uses mindfulness, art-centered activities, motivational interviewing, trauma-focused conversations, and traditional talk therapy to help people notice patterns and try new behaviors. Sessions are paced to each person and emphasize small, achievable changes.
Lee-Andre also lists broader focus areas such as attachment and adoption-related concerns, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress, chronic illness and disability, and body image. He aims to support people who need practical strategies for daily life, not just ideas on a page.
People looking for a straightforward, supportive counselor will find an approachable tone and clear direction in his work. To begin, the site matching process guides prospective clients to schedule a first appointment and connect about goals.

Step 3
Approaches that guide online counseling
Lee-Andre uses evidence-based techniques that are practical and action-oriented. Mindfulness work teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower immediate stress and improve focus, which can help with anxiety and mood symptoms. Motivational interviewing is a gentle, goal-focused conversation style that helps people resolve mixed feelings and build motivation for change. Trauma-focused talk work involves pacing conversations about painful memories while building coping skills first so those memories feel more manageable.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Lee-Andre talks with each person about their goals, daily routines, and what feels most helpful. Together they try methods and check what works, adjusting the plan when needed so therapy stays useful and realistic.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since specific formats were not listed. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work, school, or caregiving - for example it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a busy day, or avoid the need for video when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can use these options to keep therapy consistent with a client's life and needs.
