As an advanced practice psychotherapist, I work with individual adults with various mental health issues in my office and online. I combine evidence-based approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, with a comprehensive, personalized, holistic model of care.
You may be among the many people feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges or experiencing anxiety, depression, or other manifestations of past or current stress.

My work as an integrative mental health therapist blends my diverse professional experience with a fluid, intuitive style to best meet your needs.
Please get in touch with me below to get started. I look forward to working with you!
Professional Education and Background
I am an experienced psychotherapist who has enjoyed a successful private practice throughout my career. My background includes practicing at the advanced level as a mental health clinical nurse specialist for over thirty years. I have enjoyed working with people with a broad range of issues with individualized, whole-person care.
As a certified integrative mental health professional (CIMHP) and trauma therapist, I blend evidence-based approaches with natural healing methods to enhance your overall health. I offer individual therapy in my office and via telehealth. You will benefit from high-quality clinical guidance and support in our work together. I welcome newcomers to therapy and those who have tried therapy, medication, or both and are seeking additional help.
My professional journey began as an intensive care nurse. This led me to a diverse career in leadership positions in various specialties, including women’s health, psychiatry, hospice, and mental health and recovery. During these earlier years, I also earned a BA in philosophy and a master’s degree in counseling. I am a lifelong learner and enjoy staying abreast of current health information to better serve you.

Additional Certifications, Training, and Professional Experience
When you participate in therapy with Deborah Lee, you will benefit from my various skills according to your specific concerns. For example, if you are primarily experiencing relationship stress, this will be our primary focus. I am trained in the Hendricks relationship method. But suppose the effects of chronic stress include symptoms such as anxiety, insomnia, ineffective coping, difficulty concentrating, or mood issues. In that case, I offer whole-person approaches and therapeutic remedies to support your full recovery.
These integrative medicine skills may include body-mind modalities, plant medicine, and nutritional therapy. My background includes completing the Kalish Institute Functional Medicine mentorship program and getting certified as an Integrative Mental Health Professional (CIMHP, Evergreen Certifications). This advanced training enables me to better assist you in unraveling any persistent or confusing issues that have not yet been resolved.
I have also earned certifications as a board-certified holistic nurse, clinical hypnotherapist, and trauma therapist (Leslie Korn Institute of Integrative Medicine). Additionally, I became a yoga therapist (with past membership in the International Association of Yoga Therapists). I also have a background in teaching dreamwork and doing dream therapy groups.
When we work together, our focus will be determined by your unique needs and priorities. For more information, please contact me below. Thanks!
My Personal Journey
Another aspect of my work includes supporting my clients’ spiritual and creative potential. I welcome people from any spiritual path, even if it is undefined. Here is a bit more about my journey:
I was creative, artistic, and devout as a child and adolescent. At nineteen, I began meditation training and took a university yoga course. My yoga and meditation practice has continued throughout my life, and eventually, I became a yoga therapist.
At age twenty-six, I began a serious study of dreams by participating in a weekly dream study group for several years. Since then, I have been committed to writing in my journal every evening and recording my dreams daily. Dreamwork has been essential to my personal growth and intuition development. My dreams offer guidance for me, my relationships, clients, and even my cats. Please let me know if you want to explore your dreams or spirituality in any session as part of our work together.
