About Lee
Lee Schlanger is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with five years of experience. He focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, addiction recovery, grief, depression, relationship and family matters, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and related issues. Lee aims to make the first meeting feel welcoming and straightforward so people can talk about what matters most to them.
He prefers a warm, inviting approach that starts by connecting and identifying the primary goals. Sessions focus on understanding distressing feelings and tracing patterns that cause repeated problems. Lee uses emotional processing and connection as the path toward change, not quick fixes.
Lee draws from several practical approaches to help people learn new ways of coping and relating. He uses client-centered techniques to follow a person’s priorities and cognitive behavioral methods to address unhelpful thinking and behavior. Attachment-based work and emotion-focused tools help with relationship and intimacy issues, while skills from dialectical behavior therapy support emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Lee has experience supporting people through substance use recovery, trauma and abuse, domestic violence effects, caregiving stress, and family-of-origin problems. He also addresses more specific concerns like abandonment, body image, codependency, communication struggles, dissociation, and commitment worries.
He practices from Florida and offers services in English. International clients are accepted. To begin, prospective clients choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

Approaches that translate to online counseling
Attachment-based work focuses on how past relationships shape current feelings and trust. Online sessions can help people notice patterns in closeness and develop different ways of relating. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and following the client's priorities. In remote sessions this means the therapist reflects concerns, helps clarify goals, and supports whatever the client brings each week. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that maintain distress and teaches concrete skills to change them, such as thought records and behavioral experiments that can be practiced between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Lee will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change over time as therapy progresses and new priorities emerge.
The biography highlights experience with tele-mental health, but current session formats should be confirmed before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce commuting time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedule constraints require them. It also lets people practice skills in their everyday settings and bring real-life examples into the session for immediate feedback.
