Dr. Lee Look, LPP

Dr. Lee Look is a Licensed Psychological Practitioner (LPP) and holds a PhD in Counseling Psychology from the University of Louisville. He has practiced for 10 years and brings additional perspective from more than 20 years as a professional firefighter. He works with people addressing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, compassion fatigue, LGBT concerns, relationship and intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, career matters, and coping with life changes.

Background and approach starts with clear, action-oriented methods. He primarily uses cognitive and behavioral approaches that focus on thoughts and behaviors people can change. He also has experience conducting assessments and supporting people who have experienced workplace trauma, including first responders.

Sessions are practical and direct. He emphasizes client control over the counseling relationship and prefers straightforward communication. He has experience communicating by sign language and supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities through work with a related organization.

He has worked specifically with post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, grief, and first responder issues. His firefighter background informs his understanding of workplace injury and trauma, including recovery from burns and the aftereffects that can follow.

Outside of clinical work he has an arts background, enjoys cooking, and mentions singing as an unfulfilled hobby. He invites people who are ready to talk about their load to begin a practical, skills-focused process for managing strong emotions such as anger.
