About Lee
Lee Anne Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) offering 15 years of clinical experience and a collaborative, client-centered approach rooted in evidence-based methods.
Background and approach
She integrates cognitive-behavioral tools with attachment-focused work and EMDR to address conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and related concerns. Her style is warm and interactive, and she adapts conversations and treatment plans to fit each individual's needs.
Drawing on a broad set of focus areas including relationship and intimacy issues, grief, addiction, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue, she brings practical skills alongside deeper exploration of family of origin themes, attachment wounds, and abandonment reactions.
Lee Anne also works with co-morbidity challenges and conditions such as chronic pain or illness, body image and eating concerns, and dissociation when they intersect with a client’s goals. She is licensed in Colorado and Texas and frames therapy as a cooperative process that balances skill building with emotional processing.
Integrating Evidence-Based Approaches in Online Therapy
Lee Anne often blends cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and attachment-based methods to help clients understand unhelpful thought patterns and build healthier relational responses. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and stress, while attachment-based therapy explores early relational experiences and how they influence current emotional patterns and intimacy issues.She also uses EMDR for processing trauma when it aligns with a client’s needs; EMDR aims to reduce the intensity of distressing memories by engaging bilateral stimulation alongside targeted therapeutic processing. Together these approaches offer both practical skill building and deeper emotional healing, and Lee Anne treats choosing the method as a collaborative decision. She partners with clients to assess goals, preferences, and responses to interventions, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for scheduling and allows clients to participate from locations that fit their lives. These formats make it easier to continue consistent work on coping strategies, skills practice, trauma processing, and relational exploration without commuting, supporting steady progress through a modality that suits each person’s routine and comfort.
