A Therapist Navigating Antidepressant Withdrawal: Nelson Lee on the Power of the Present Moment

A Therapist Navigating Antidepressant Withdrawal: Nelson Lee on the Power of the Present Moment

Nelson Lee is a therapist and mental skills coach with a master's degree in clinical mental health counseling and an MBA. In 2024, he attempted to get off antidepressants that he'd been on for 15 years. This led to significant long-term medication withdrawal that Nelson is still navigating at the time of this interview.

As a therapist, Nelson specializes in helping clients transform their relationships with themselves and others and overcome anxiety and OCD. He loves helping people rise above their challenges and proactively maintain long-term healing and growth. He believes it's never too late or too early to improve your mental health.
