About Lee

Dr. Lee Look is a Licensed Psychological Practitioner who brings ten years of clinical experience to his practice. He earned a PhD in Counseling Psychology from the University of Louisville and also serves as a professional firefighter. He combines those perspectives when helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and depression.

He focuses on clear, practical techniques drawn from evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Sessions emphasize concrete skills for coping with life changes, anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, and career stress. He also supports people facing compassion fatigue and issues related to LGBT identity.

Dr. Look has experience with first responder issues and post-traumatic reactions, and he understands workplace injury and trauma from his own firefighting background. He has worked with people who have intellectual and developmental disabilities and can converse in sign language when needed.

His approach centers on meeting each person where they are and keeping control of the counseling relationship in the client’s hands. That means decisions about pace and focus happen together, and the therapist aims to create conditions where people can safely talk through difficult topics.

Away from clinical work he spent many years as an artist, enjoys cooking, and wishes he could sing. He encourages anyone taking the step toward counseling to reach out so they can begin carrying their load together.

Online approaches and how they fit into real life

Dr. Look primarily uses cognitive and behavioral techniques that help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. These methods focus on practical steps and exercises people can use between sessions to manage anxiety, depression, anger, and stress.

He also draws on trauma-informed practices that prioritize safety, pacing, and rebuilding routines after a distressing event. Those methods can help with grief, workplace trauma, post-traumatic reactions, and first responder issues by breaking problems into manageable parts and restoring daily functioning.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust strategies based on what feels helpful. Clients have a say in pace and focus throughout treatment.

Session format options were not fully specified in the biography, so confirm current session types before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use video, chat, or messaging when those formats are supported; verify which of those are available with this therapist before scheduling.
