Lee Gilman

Hi there, my name is Lee. I am a bi-racial, first-generation Vietnamese-American, and I believe the best therapy happens when we bring our full, authentic selves into the room. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist. I have a passion for working with couples and diverse populations. My goal is to truly understand and connect, offering a space filled with warmth, radical acceptance, clear accountability, and—fair warning—the occasional painful dad joke.

We are all part of a complex, beautiful, and sometimes tangled web of relationships and experiences. I approach therapy through a systemic lens, helping you untangle those threads to understand how your past shapes your present. Whether we are utilizing the Gottman Method for relationship strengthening, narrative work to reshape your story, solution-focused techniques for immediate goals, or discussing more sensitive/intimate sex therapy topics, my approach is always tailored to you. I specialize in supporting diverse populations and those navigating intersectional identities. I bring a blend of radical acceptance, steady accountability, and just enough humor to make the hard work of healing feel a little more human.

Your initial visits are our chance to untangle the first threads together. Through a bit of psychological excavation, my goal is to truly understand and connect to your inner world. We’ll use this time for a thorough assessment, exploring your history, discussing any mental health diagnoses that might help guide our roadmap, and identifying your goals. I typically like to see you weekly at the start so we can make real, stabilizing progress right out of the gate.
