Genie Lee, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
My name is Genie Lee, LMFT, and I have over 20 years of experience working with individuals, couples, families, and children. I hold a Master’s in Counseling from Santa Clara University and a Master’s in Elementary Education from the University of South Carolina. My focus currently is on adults individually and in couples therapy. My approach is that each of us has the strength inside to solve whatever problems we face, and I am here to help you figure it all out. My approach I work hard to get to know you as an individual and as a couple and find out what you want in our time together. I use mostly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with strength-based and supportive therapy. When working with couples, I also use couples therapy, sometimes Imago Couples Therapy. This is your time, so you get to decide how we spend it. My focus I mostly work with individual adults or couples who have issues that interfere with their relationships, work, and life. These issues include anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, codependency, communication problems, intimacy problems, extended family issues, difficulty setting boundaries, problems with trust, alcohol/drug abuse, anger, past trauma, ADHD, stress, feeling overwhelmed, grief, aging, life transitions, emotional/physical/verbal abuse, and more. My communication style I am the type of therapist who takes the therapy session at your pace, answering any questions you may have. There isn’t any topic we cannot talk about. I am gentle but will be direct and honest with you and hope that you will also be. I do not judge and work hard to remain objective. I am very supportive, focusing on your strengths and giving a lot of encouragement. My journey to therapy I was an elementary teacher for 14 years before I became a therapist. I sometimes saw students who struggled with their emotions and clearly would have benefited from seeing a therapist. I began to feel that I could do more as a therapist.
