Lee Long

True Grit with Craig Kautsch

We all need a therapist... If you don’t have one you’ll probably be fine...but you will be slower. Slower to grow, slower to understand, slower to succeed. This week’s guest is Lee Long. He’s been the main catalyst to my growth in the past 5 years. I’ve spent hundreds of hours with this man and it has changed my life. We touch on a wide variety of topics including business, marriage, depression, and endurance running. You’ll get the inside scoop on why 3rd party help has expedited all things valuable in my life.

With over twenty years of clinical experience, Lee has worked with many adults, couples, adolescents, and families. His experiences range from working with adolescents in juvenile detention programs, Counseling Director of a residential treatment program, psychiatric hospitals, and private practice.

Lee works with individuals who deal with addictions, mental health issues, relational struggles within the family, and more. He helps families re-establish relationships and married couples rekindle their love and commitment.

Lee is a Licensed Professional Counselor and supervisor in the state of Texas. He is certified in Cognitive Behavioral Analysis Systems of Psychotherapy (CBASP), an evidence-based approach, developed by Dr. James McCullough, to treat chronic depression. He is also intensively trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Lee is currently completing his doctorate in counseling with an emphasis in traumatology. His dissertation involves Cognitive Behavioral Analysis Systems of Psychotherapy and why it is effective.

He’s an avid runner and has run 8 marathons and a couple of ultras and actually did a 50k on a Woodway treadmill.
