Hi! I'mĀ Lee Fowlkes, LCSW

Every day, I strive to surpass my previous self, and I highly recommend Atomic Habits by James Clear as a must-read for anyone looking to do the same.Ā - Lee

A Behind-the-Scenes Look at my Experience as a Therapist
Being a therapist is scary. Even after 30 years, I get anxious for each new client. I know that I am asking them to trust me with their greatest fears, and they deserve my best effort. Having a healthy respect for that trust helps me honor every relationship.Ā

A Memorable Success Story
I worked with a child who was in foster care, and they had multiple placements because of out of control behaviors. One day there was an incident, and when I got to the house the child was packing their things, preparing to go to a new placement. When I told the child that they weren't going anywhere - that we were going to work this out like a family does - it changed everything for this kid. When they realized that they could be at their worse but still be accepted and part of a family, their whole trajectory in life changed. - Lee
Maintaining Balance: How I Prioritize Well-Being to Serve Clients, Myself, and My Family
This has been a journey for me, but I have finally found hobbies that I enjoy and make a priority. I started attending a yoga class weekly and have standing appointments to do fun things with my family. I finally accepted that I have to take care of myself so I can be able to take care of others.Ā - Lee Fowlkes, LCSW
