About
Life can be challenging, but ultimately life is meant to be lived joyously.
Lee Sinnott is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 6 years of experience, working with a wide variety of people. He is passionate about helping his clients in those around him to find their personal power and developing skills to live a life of their own, making in line with their goals and dreams.
Lee completed his Master's degree in Counseling at Milligan University. We found a love and affinity for existential therapy and the application of mindfulness to the therapeutic process.
Life can be challenging at times. The question is, what can we learn from these challenges? If we choose to, we can use the pain that life has to find a deeper sense of joy, and connecting us with the world around us. Schedule your first session with Lee today.

I welcome people from all walks of life, and want you to know you will be supported, cared for, and hopefully experience the growth you’d like to see in yourself.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Tennessee with 30 years of professional experience. I specialize in helping individuals and couples manage stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, abuse, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, and addictions. I create a safe, open, and supportive environment where clients can share without fear of judgment. Taking the first step into therapy can feel overwhelming, but I am here to walk alongside you with compassion, encouragement, and respect for your unique journey.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from West Virginia University. My approach integrates evidence-based practices such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, solution-focused therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy.
I understand that beginning therapy can feel intimidating, but I strive to make the process welcoming and supportive. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel heard and valued while building skills to support your growth. Together, we will work toward healing, resilience, and greater confidence in your everyday life.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Loneliness counseling is a specialized form of therapy focused on helping individuals navigate the emotional challenges and isolation associated with persistent loneliness. Counselors and therapists at Thriveworks in Johnson City, TN create a supportive and understanding environment where clients can delve into the root causes of their loneliness and develop strategies to establish meaningful social connections.
Loneliness counseling employs a multifaceted approach, utilizing Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques to reframe your negative thought patterns, enhance communication, and improve social skills. It also incorporates interpersonal therapy to address relationship patterns, and mindfulness practices to manage feelings of loneliness and self-criticism. Goal-setting is also encouraged to help you actively pursue social connections and community engagement. Through these techniques, loneliness therapy empowers individuals to overcome isolation, develop meaningful relationships, and enhance their overall emotional well-being.
Thriveworks loneliness counseling in Johnson City, TN is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Loneliness counseling can take different amounts of time. It depends on how lonely a person is and how they’re doing in counseling. Normally, it involves many sessions that last from a few weeks to a few months. The exact number of sessions and how long it takes are determined with the loneliness counselor’s input.
