Carol Lee, LMHC

Psychotherapist
NY
Hi there, I'm Carol! My name is Carol Lee, and I am a bilingual Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York. I hold an MSEd in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from St. John's University. I currently work with adult individuals via telehealth and specialize in trauma recovery, stress and anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and relationship struggles. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to empower clients to become active participants in their healing journey. My approach My approach to therapy is highly customized, client-centered, and usually integrates theories and skills from CBT, ACT, Mindfulness, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems (IFS), tailored to each client's specific needs and goals. My focus I have found that my background, therapy style, and approach provide strong support for adults who experience challenges with emotional distress, trauma, behavioral and functional difficulties, social issues, life transitions, personal growth, and self-care needs-especially for Mandarin-speaking and/or Asian American clients. My communication style My communication style is attuned, validating, empowering, and personable. I always strive to create a sense of safety from the beginning of our therapeutic relationship so clients feel comfortable expressing themselves and being who they are. My journey to mental healthcare I decided to become a therapist because of my personal experiences, curiosity, and admiration for human beings' potential and resilience. When I was young, I didn't intend to ?help? others, but I noticed that by being sincerely curious and nonjudgmental, I became that one person whom family, friends, peers, partners, and even strangers felt safe with and trusted. I found that I could be helpful, and this pleasant discovery led me to this profession. I truly enjoy witnessing people create their ideal reality.
