Lee Penn

As a geriatrics psychologist by training, I have over a decade of experience helping clientele to navigate later life issues. Burnout, caregiving for older adults, low motivation, navigating new roles, life changes, struggles with guilt and helplessness, setting boundaries, financial planning, and preparing for the uncertainty of retirement are all areas I specialize in. I hold a PhD in Counseling Psychology, an MBA, and years of experience as a frontline healthcare worker within the nursing home industry. Let me help you to find meaning again, achieve a better balance, and grasp some of your control back.

I work primarily from a blend of Cognitive therapies and Interpersonal Psychotherapy. I believe that our thoughts and actions play a huge role in how we cope with adversity, yet we also must find a way to grapple with the things we cannot control. I focus on leveraging my experience working with later-life issues to help you make meaningful change in your busy and stressful life.

I offer virtual (online) sessions to Kentucky residents and am primarily available weekday afternoons. We'll meet first for a 15-minute free consultation call, during which we can discuss possible directions and a first-time information-gathering intake. My hope is to quickly provide you with simple yet impactful goals from the very start.
