About Lee
Hello! Welcome to Betterhelp! My name is Lee Maxwell. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker; practicing in Atlanta, Georgia (US). First off, I would like to applaud your initial steps in reaching out for support. Life can be incredibly challenging for all of us. And, I know that it isn’t always easy to ask for help. I’ve been professionally licensed in the state of Georgia since 2009; with an overall 23 years of experience in behavioral health services; 14 of those years, specifically focused on providing counseling services. My specialty areas include assisting with more effectively managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, geriatric-specific challenges (transitions into long-term care, increased challenges with both physical and cognitive deficits, role changes with family, etc.), as well as LGBTQ+-related challenges such as navigating the coming-out process and resolving unpleasant responses from the experience. My take on the therapeutic process is simple; treat others as I would want to be treated. I believe in meeting each person where they are in their process of improving their quality of life; providing consistent support throughout one’s time while engaged in the therapeutic process. If you choose me as your therapist, here is what you can expect: A down-to-earth, non-judgmental approach, where trust is developed and nurtured as we explore and process thoughts and feelings; while also learning to identify triggers, emotional and behavioral patterns, as well as learning healthy coping tools. Once you’ve had a chance to review my profile information, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. My office hours are Monday - Thursday; 10am - 5pm. Sessions are scheduled on the hour and typically last 30-45 minutes. Please note that I check messages twice daily; Monday - Friday. Any messages received over the weekend will be addressed on the following Monday. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey of self-discovery and resolution. Read more Show less
