If you're looking for an out of the ordinary therapist, welcome to my "office"! I was born and raised in Springfield Massachusetts before moving to east Tennessee in 2011 and then northeast Vermont in 2021. So I understand "transplant loneliness" quite well in addition to other city to rural living dilemmas. I have a wide array of lived experience in addition to my education and am able to bring it all to the table to better assist you on your journey. I am only human and I do not know more about you than you, but we can work together to find the solutions to the issues that trouble you. I am here to dig out the answers you seek from within. Side note: I have experience with various types of relationships within the internet/gaming/pop culture/geek/nerd/neurodiverse/LGBTQ/spiritual and alternative communities as well cultural diversity.

Steven Lecce

Therapist

Virtual • Vermont


Looking for guidance to work through trauma? Feeling stuck in your relationship? Wondering about your life’s purpose? You’re not alone. We all face challenges at different points in our lives, and sometimes we need support to find self-awareness and compassion—both essential to healing. Using evidence-based approaches like IFS and EMDR, I help support emotional and mental health goals. I believe we all have the innate ability to feel, heal, discover, and live a more uplifting life. All it takes to begin is the willingness to take that first step and trust the process.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Vermont

Searching for therapists in Vermont starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Across the state, therapist options can vary between more populated areas and rural communities, so it helps to focus your search early. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions. Review each therapist’s listed specialties, therapy approach, and experience with concerns like yours. Modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing may appear in therapist profiles, along with details about what sessions are like.

Location and format also matter when comparing Vermont therapists. If you live near Burlington, Montpelier, Rutland, or a smaller community, you may want an in-person therapist close to home or work. Virtual appointments can also expand your options across Vermont, especially when local availability is more limited. As you narrow your search, look at appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and fit for your preferences.

The cost of mental health care in Vermont varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, take your insurance, and are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your plan details to check coverage and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. From there, you can compare Vermont therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
