About Lee
Lee Schlanger is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with five years of experience. He works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction recovery, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, and related issues such as anger and low self-esteem.
Sessions start by identifying the most pressing problem and building a working connection. Lee aims to create a straightforward, collaborative space where people can talk through immediate symptoms and the situations that feed them. He uses conversation and problem-focused work rather than lengthy lectures or jargon.
Lee draws on several clinical approaches to guide sessions. He uses attachment ideas to look at how past relationships shape current reactions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. He also uses techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when emotion regulation and relationship patterns are central concerns.
People who come for help with parenting stress, family conflict, or intimacy-related worries will find sessions that combine listening with practical skills. Lee can also address caregiver strain, substance use concerns, and grief through focused discussion and coping strategies.
Lee lives in Florida and has experience offering tele-mental health sessions. He accepts international clients and works in English. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and formats.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Lee uses Attachment-Based ideas to help people understand how early relationships affect current interactions and reactions; this work can clarify patterns that show up in parenting and family situations. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to practice specific skills for managing anxiety, mood, and reactions to stress. Emotionally-Focused techniques are used when relationship patterns and strong emotions need to be processed and understood.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lee will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That choice can change as symptoms shift or new issues emerge, and the therapist and client adjust together.
The profile notes experience offering tele-mental health sessions, but specific session formats are not listed here. Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether video, phone, or another format is offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling around work, caregiving, and daily routines. Shorter check-ins, flexible scheduling, and avoiding travel are practical benefits people often cite, while the therapeutic focus stays on emotion processing, skills practice, and resolving family or parenting concerns.
