Ray Lynn Lee, CSW​: Lexington

Hello, my name is Ray Lynn. I am a mother, sister, daughter, girlfriend, member of the LGBTQ+ community, mother to a beautiful trans child, lover of animals and the outdoors, except in winter.

I have spent most of my professional decade-long career working with kids, families, bio parents, and social workers from the foster care system. I worked with children school aged and up, as well as a lot of work with transgendered youth aging out of the foster care system. I made a switch when I went back to graduate school to work with adults suffering from substance abuse disorders.

Quickly, I realized there were not many differences between the children in the system and adults with addictions, they were the kids that slipped through the cracks. Childhood trauma shapes the very skills we develop to cope and live in the world.

All trauma is different for each person. With education, acceptance, and exploration we can all work towards healing and learning to love ourselves in the process. Therapy is important because healing is messy, and does not color in the lines. Join me in creating a new masterpiece, with you at the center, driving the change.
