About Lee-Andre

Lee-Andre Garvin is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who focuses on men’s wellbeing and common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and self-esteem. He offers a calm, straightforward approach and helps people find practical ways to manage symptoms and improve daily life. Lee-Andre aims to build on each person’s existing strengths so they can move toward better mental health.

He holds a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from the University of Denver and has seven years of clinical experience in the Front Range. That work included roles as a substance abuse counselor and as a high-school and community mental health therapist. Those roles gave him experience addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, dissociation, bipolar disorder, and identity questions related to race and gender.

Sessions are collaborative. He listens and helps clients set goals they find meaningful. Common techniques mentioned in his background include mindfulness from dialectical behavior approaches, art-based exercises, motivational interviewing, trauma-focused work, and traditional talk therapy. He adapts methods to each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Lee-Andre emphasizes practical steps people can try between sessions. He works with clients to identify patterns, develop coping skills, and use personal strengths to manage stress and relationship issues. Clients can expect a direct but supportive style that focuses on real-world change.

People interested in starting can complete the platform’s matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability. Sessions and subscription details vary by location and may be canceled at any time.

Evidence-based methods and online care

Lee-Andre’s background references several evidence-based approaches used to help people manage symptoms and improve functioning. Mindfulness techniques from dialectical behavior approaches teach attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and manage stress. Motivational interviewing focuses on drawing out a person’s own reasons for change and building commitment to realistic goals. Trauma-focused work helps people process painful experiences and develop coping strategies to reduce their daily impact.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lee-Andre works collaboratively with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and comfort level. He discusses options, tries approaches, and adjusts plans together as needs evolve.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified in his biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or let someone choose a session that does not require being on camera. Licensed professionals aim to adapt session length and focus so therapy fits into daily routines and helps people make steady progress.
