Get to
Know Me

Lee Bennett, LPC

"You are the expert on your life; I am here to help you navigate the terrain."

I know what it feels like to carry the weight of expectations. As a former dual-sport college athlete, I understand the unique pressure of having to perform when all eyes are on you—and the burnout that happens when your identity is tied strictly to your output.

My approach to counseling is built on a simple truth: healing happens when you are met exactly where you are, without judgment or an agenda. With a background in Biology and a Master’s in Counseling from Xavier, I bridge the gap between the science of how we function and the heart of who we are.

My Mission for Our Work Together: In our sessions, you are the lead. I serve as your guide, helping you peel back the layers of stress and systemic pressure to find your best, most authentic self. Whether we are navigating the complexities of childhood and adolescence or the high-stakes world of competitive athletics, my goal is to provide a confidential sanctuary where you can finally take off the mask.

Specialized Areas of Focus:

  • Athletes & High-Performers: Navigating identity, performance anxiety, and retirement from sport.

  • Children & Adolescents: Building emotional intelligence and resilience in a fast-paced world.

  • Person-Centered Growth: Grounding your healing in your own values and potential.
