About Lee-Andre

Lee-Andre Garvin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. He frames therapy as a cooperative effort and focuses on helping clients find their own strengths. Sessions emphasize practical steps and emotional support rather than medical labels or quick fixes.

Lee-Andre draws on seven years of practice in the Front Range region. He has worked as a substance abuse counselor and as a high-school and community mental health therapist. That work included supporting people through recovery, anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, dissociation, and identity concerns related to race and gender.

In sessions he uses a mix of talk-based work and techniques such as mindfulness, art therapy, motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused approaches. He aims to make room for both emotional expression and concrete problem solving. The focus is on small, achievable steps that build resilience over time.

He also has experience addressing adoption and foster care issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and codependency. Lee-Andre emphasizes collaboration and tailors the process to each person’s pace and goals.

People who choose him can expect straightforward conversation, steady encouragement, and practical tools they can use between sessions. To begin, he asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to his availability.

Approaches that guide online work

Lee-Andre uses evidence-based techniques that mix talk therapy with practical practices. Mindfulness involves simple grounding and breathing exercises to reduce overwhelm and improve focus, which can help with anxiety and stress. Motivational interviewing focuses on the client’s own goals and reasons for change, helping with ambivalence around things like recovery or behavior change.

He also integrates trauma-focused methods that gently look at damaging experiences and help build coping skills. These approaches help people gain more control over reactions and reduce the hold of past events. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - the therapist and client discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what actually helps.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since session formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists can adapt interventions to remote sessions so clients can practice skills between appointments and keep progress moving forward.
