Althea Lee LMFT: Your Partner in Mental Health
Individual Therapy
People come to individual counseling to talk about different aspects of their lives and difficulties they may be having in solving some of their problems.
Many people experience counseling as a safe place to share their deepest thoughts and feelings without judgment. Individual psychotherapy offers a powerful setting for the disclosure of secrets, emotions and experiences that may be difficult to discuss.
As the relationship between the client and therapist develops, therapy can provide a framework where one can create the life they desire. The weaving of past stories, events, feelings and traumas, with current emotions, patterns, stressors and events enables the individual to integrate the past with the present.
Additionally, research findings indicate that psychotherapy can be effective in reducing physical health problems, depression and an array of major and minor thought and behavior disorders. There is truly something very healing that occurs when someone can feel understood in an atmosphere of safety and acceptance.

An EFT treatment involves the use of fingertips rather than needles to tap on the end points of energy meridians that are situated just beneath the surface of the skin. The treatment is non-invasive and works on the ethos of making change as simple and as pain free as possible.
My training and work experiences over the years have given me skills in behavioral therapies such as CBT, DBT, SFBT, and EFT. I received training from an EFT-approved course and I have satisfied all training requirements to successfully conduct EFT with clients and use at as a primary tool to help clients heal.
