Lee Holliday

Hi, I'm Lee Holliday, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 20 years of experience supporting adults through life's challenges and transitions. I work with adults ages 18 to 118 who may be adjusting to changes that make life feel unfamiliar or uncomfortable, including grief, aging, disability, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.

I especially enjoy working with college students, older adults, and individuals navigating changes in their health, independence, self-confidence, or daily life. I also support individuals experiencing loneliness and significant life changes. My goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and empowered as you navigate whatever life brings.

My approach is relationship-centered, strengths-based, and practical. I believe in looking at the whole picture, including your emotions, relationships, circumstances, and the changes happening in your life. Rather than simply focusing on what's wrong, I'll help you identify what is within your control, build on your existing strengths, and develop realistic strategies for coping with stress, loss, transitions, and emotional challenges.

I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). These approaches help us explore how your thoughts and experiences influence your emotions, recognize patterns that may no longer be serving you, and identify practical steps toward meaningful change.

When working through anxiety and depression, we'll explore emotional and thought patterns while building tools to support your well-being. For stress management, we'll focus on realistic strategies that fit your everyday life and help you navigate challenging circumstances.

When addressing grief and loss, I'll provide space to process your experience and adjust to changes at your own pace. For trauma, we'll work toward understanding how past experiences may be affecting you today while strengthening your sense of safety and resilience. I also welcome conversations about physical health concerns and relationship challenges, recognizing how closely these experiences can be connected to emotional well-being.

Our first session is a conversation about you. We'll talk about what brought you to therapy, what has been most difficult lately, and what you would like to feel or do differently.

You don't need to have everything figured out before we begin. I'll take time to understand your story, answer your questions, and work with you to identify goals that feel meaningful and realistic.

My priority is that you leave feeling respected, understood, and confident that we have a direction to work toward. I want you to know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone.
