About Lee
Lee Mikell uses a client-centered approach to guide people through hard moments. He is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with ten years of experience. He focuses on practical steps and clear conversations so people know what to expect each week.
Lee helps people sort through relationship strain and intimacy issues. He also supports those recovering from trauma and abuse and works with parents coping with the stress of caregiving.
Background and approach
Many clients come for help with depression, sleep problems, addiction concerns, or finding purpose after a life change. In sessions he combines client-centered care with cognitive behavioral techniques. That means listening first, then working together to spot habits and thoughts that get in the way.
He also uses solution-focused and trauma-focused methods when those fit the goals people bring to therapy. Lee's background includes work with chronic mental health challenges, child welfare involvement, and both victims and perpetrators connected to the criminal justice system. He has assisted with divorce-related cases and with reunification goals after family disruption.
Those experiences shape a practical, results-oriented style. Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal-directed. Lee helps people break large problems into small steps.
He invites honest talk and helps build concrete plans for change.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person's lead. In practice this means the therapist asks questions, reflects what is said, and helps the client name goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers exercises people can try between sessions to reduce symptoms like depression and sleep disruption.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, past experiences, and what has helped before. Together they will pick methods and adjust them as progress is made, so the work matches the client's needs and preferences.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for deeper conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send quick updates, ask questions between sessions, or use therapy during a busy day. These options make it simpler to fit counseling into work, family, or caregiving routines.
