Irene Lee, MSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Welcome! I am a licensed clinical social worker and therapist based in Boulder, Colorado. I specialize in providing psychotherapy to adolescents and adults who are dealing with various challenges including depression, anxiety, trauma, and life stressors. I create a safe and supportive environment for my clients to explore their emotions and experiences with a compassionate approach.
Expertise
One of my areas of expertise is working with adults who are navigating various issues such as relationship conflicts, parenthood, and infertility issues. I also love assisting young adults who are undergoing significant life transitions like starting college or embarking on a new career path. I am a trained practitioner of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR is known to be an effective therapeutic approach for treating trauma, anxiety, and depression.
Background
As an Asian American woman of color, I value diversity. I strive to create an inclusive practice where individuals from all backgrounds feel respected. There are unique challenges faced by marginalized communities. I have committed myself to providing culturally sensitive care to all my clients.
I hold licenses to practice in both Colorado and Oregon. I have received my Master’s degree in Social Work from New York University and my Bachelor’s degree from Harvard University.
It can be intimidating to take the first step towards therapy, so I strive to make the process as smooth as possible. If you’re looking for a compassionate and experienced therapist in the Boulder area, I am here to help.
