Dr. Ronald Lee, LLC

My Story

I am a soft spoken psychologist who has worked in mental health and educational settings for over 30 years. One of my greatest joys is when I can partner with clients to work towards their personal goals that results in long-lasting, meaningful change. Outside of work, I enjoy travel, learning about diverse cultures, and eating good food. But most of all I enjoy spending leisure time with my beautiful wife, two daughters, and a labradoodle named Elton.

Although I enjoy working in a variety of ways with diverse populations, I am particularly interested in helping Asian Americans in therapy. While it is the fastest growing minority group in the nation, Asian Americans are also the least likely ethnic group to seek mental health support. My personal journey as a second generation, cisgender, monolingual Chinese American male who grew up in New England during the 1960’s and 1970’s affects how I show up wherever I go. While this may or may not be the same racial experience as your own, we can all relate to the universal feelings of love, depression, anger, and loss. I am committed to entering therapeutic spaces with cultural humility, a promise to meet you where you are at, and to help you move to a healthier and more empowered place in your life.

I provide trainings on school safety, school-based mental heath, and diverse cultures. I have trained up to 300 educators at one time in person, and as many as 900 viewers at one time online. Fee for service is dependent on the amount of preparation and training time, location and the size of audience.
My focus is on working with adolescents and adults who struggle with issues that include mild to moderate concerns of anxiety, depression, and/or racial identity. For symptom management, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) strategies. For more involved, longer term concerns, I incorporate an approach known as Narrative Therapy, which seeks to help you better understand and be empowered to be the author of your own life story. This online only service is at the rate of $140 per 50 minute session. Reduced fees for teachers and those who work in the military, and other human service professions. A free 15-minute initial consultation is available upon request. I am a PSYPACT provider, which means that I can practrice telehealth therapy to residents in more than 40 states.
