About Lee
Dr. Lee Look is a Licensed Psychological Practitioner (LPP) based in Kentucky with a PhD in Counseling Psychology from the University of Louisville. He brings ten years of professional counseling experience and more than two decades as a professional firefighter.
That combination shapes a practical, straightforward approach to helping people manage stress and anxiety. He commonly helps people dealing with trauma, depression, grief, and compassion fatigue. He also supports concerns like relationship and intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and major life changes.
Background and approach
He has experience with first responder stress, traumatic brain injury, and veteran and armed forces issues. Dr. Look emphasizes collaboration and client control in sessions.
He aims to meet each person where they are and lets clients shape the pace and focus of counseling. He is comfortable using messaging, live chat, phone, and video to communicate. He can converse in sign language and has worked with organizations serving people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
He also notes experience with aging and geriatric issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, hearing impairment, and communication difficulties. Outside of clinical work he has a background in art and enjoys cooking. He draws on personal experience of workplace injury as a firefighter to inform his understanding of workplace trauma and stress.
Evidence-based techniques and online care
Dr. Look favors evidence-based therapeutic techniques rooted in cognitive and behavioral approaches. These methods focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. They are often used for stress, panic, and everyday worry.He also draws on trauma-informed work that helps people process upsetting events and develop coping strategies for symptoms like intrusive memories, sleep disruption, or hypervigilance. That work emphasizes safety, pacing, and practical skills to manage triggers and distress.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try strategies, and adjust methods based on what is helpful. Clients have input on pace and focus so treatment fits their needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer therapy conversations and visual cues. Phone can be a lower-bandwidth option or fit during a break. Live chat and messaging work well for shorter check-ins, mood updates, or practicing skills between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule and to maintain contact between meetings.
