About Sylvia

Sylvia Lee is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 19 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and intimacy-related struggles. Sylvia aims to create a calm space where clients can talk through hard feelings and look for what might help next.

Sylvia starts from the view that each person knows their own story best. She looks for strengths and practical steps people can try between sessions. Conversations are aimed at making change feel more manageable than it first seems.

Many people come to her for support after loss, during big life transitions, or when relationships feel stuck. She also works with concerns such as depression, ADHD, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and issues tied to identity and sexuality. Her background includes long-term practice with a wide range of life challenges.

Sylvia identifies as a Black woman and a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, and she welcomes clients from diverse cultural backgrounds. She talks with clients about realistic goals and small, concrete changes that add up over time. Sessions emphasize listening, reflection, and clear next steps.

To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules based on the therapist's availability. Sylvia supports people who want to take a thoughtful step toward feeling steadier and more in control of their daily life.

How Sylvia blends approaches for online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience, helping people feel heard and respected while they set their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and offers practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then suggest techniques that fit the situation. Sylvia adapts methods over time so sessions stay useful and relevant to what the client needs now.

Confirm the exact online session options before booking so you know how meetings will be scheduled. Many people like online work because it can fit more easily into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Online sessions can also make it easier to try focused skill practice between meetings and to keep progress moving during life transitions.
