About Jo
Dr. Jo Ann Lee is a Florida Psychologist (FL Psychologist PY5608) with three decades of clinical experience. She has worked with adults facing depression, stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, parenting problems, bereavement, sexuality questions, ADHD, and work-related concerns. She also lists anger among her focus areas.
Her practice combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people manage feelings and change unhelpful patterns. Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented. She uses direct conversation, skill-building, and short-term strategies to address current problems.
Dr. Lee has experience supporting people who have faced emotional and physical abuse and those returning from incarceration. She also works with issues such as addiction, trauma, intimacy challenges, sleep and eating problems, and compassion fatigue. Her additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, blended family matters, and aging and geriatric issues.
In sessions she often helps clients identify thoughts and behaviors that fuel anger or anxiety, then practices alternatives that reduce reactivity. She also focuses on concrete solutions people can try between appointments, such as behavior experiments and communication skills.
Clients should expect a straightforward, problem-focused approach that emphasizes skills they can use right away. For people coping with grief, panic, impulsivity, or relationship conflict, she offers structured methods to address both immediate distress and practical next steps.
How sessions work
How her methods translate to online care
Dr. Lee commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her practice. CBT helps people notice and test the thoughts and behaviors that fuel anger or anxiety, and introduces practical skills like thought reframing and behavioral experiments. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on clear, achievable goals and small changes that move a person toward better functioning rather than focusing at length on the problem.Choosing an approach is collaborative. She will work with the client to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. That process often starts with identifying the most pressing problem and then trying focused techniques to see what helps.
The biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm the current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in can work during a lunch break, sessions by phone can use less bandwidth, and video sessions let a therapist observe nonverbal cues. Ask about the available formats when you schedule so sessions match your schedule and practical needs.
