Quynh Lee, LPC

Quynh Lee is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 14 years of experience practicing in Texas. She focuses on helping people who are feeling stuck by opening conversations about emotions, relationships, and difficult life events. Her sessions are collaborative and grounded in practical, talk-and-skill approaches that aim to make daily life easier to manage.

She brings a calm, compassionate presence to sessions and avoids shaming or blaming language. Quynh uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with techniques drawn from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Internal Family Systems, to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also integrates motivational and body-focused methods when those fit the person's needs.

Quynh works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addiction, grief, parenting strain, and issues around identity and self-esteem. She also addresses complex matters such as codependency, attachment wounds, body image, and co-occurring mood concerns. Her goal is to help clients build clarity, calm, and more satisfying ways of relating to themselves and others.

Sessions focus on small, achievable steps - practical skills, clearer thinking, and gentle exploration of painful memories or patterns. Quynh encourages curiosity and experimentation so people can find what actually helps them feel more present and able to cope.

She aims to partner with each person to reduce chaos and increase confidence. The work is paced to fit each individual's readiness and goals, with a focus on reclaiming a sense of worth and purpose.

Approaches that guide online work and practical therapy

Quynh often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thinking patterns that increase anxiety or depression. CBT focuses on concrete steps and simple experiments to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT skills are useful when emotions feel intense or when someone wants steadier ways to cope day to day.

Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. Quynh will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit their situation. Together they’ll try techniques, review what helps, and adapt the plan as needed.

Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make sessions flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skills practice. Phone sessions can be good for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are helpful for people who prefer written exchanges or want more frequent, brief check-ins between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving routines while still focusing on real progress.
