About Lee
Lee Schlanger is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and trauma. Lee also supports those facing relationship and family concerns, parenting stress, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD, and life transitions.
Lee keeps sessions warm and straightforward. He begins by building a connection and identifying the main problem to address. He listens without judgment and works collaboratively to understand what’s driving painful feelings.
Background and approach
Lee uses a mix of body-based awareness, attachment-focused work, and client-centered conversation. He helps people notice how stress shows up in the body and links those sensations to thoughts and relationship patterns. Practical skills from cognitive and dialectical approaches are used when helpful to manage symptoms day to day.
Sessions may include talking through difficult memories, practicing grounding and emotion regulation skills, and tracing patterns that keep someone stuck. Lee aims to help clients process emotions and strengthen coping strategies rather than promising a quick fix. Lee practices in Florida and offers online care that accepts international clients.
He holds the Florida LMHC license FL LMHC MH18548. Sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging and are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How somatic and relational approaches work online
Somatic-informed work pays attention to bodily signals and physical sensations tied to emotion. In practice this means noticing tension, breath, grounding, and simple body-based exercises to calm overwhelm and make feelings clearer. It can help with anxiety, trauma responses, and stress that shows up physically.Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape trust, closeness, and conflict. This approach helps people spot repeating relationship cycles and try different ways of connecting and setting boundaries. Client-centered therapy gives people space to lead sessions while the therapist listens closely and reflects what matters most to them.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Lee will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and what feels useful. Together they decide whether to focus more on body awareness, relationship patterns, practical skills, or a combination of methods that fits the client’s needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video and phone sessions allow face-to-face conversation from home, while live chat and text-based messaging give moments of support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and fit work, family, or travel schedules.
