Robert A Lees 

Since 1983, Robert A. Lees has been a trusted advocate for mental health professionals in Colorado, helping them navigate the most challenging moments in their careers. As founder of Robert A. Lees & Associates, he brings decades of expertise in Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA) matters, including licensing applications, renewals, grievance defense, disciplinary actions, proceedings, and compliance training.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn directly from a legal expert who understands the unique challenges faced by mental health professionals—and is dedicated to ensuring they receive the same respect and care they give their clients.

Possible topics discussed

    • Potential consequences of current licensing status — can titles be changed or restored (e.g., “registered psychotherapist” vs. “unlicensed psychotherapist”)?
    • Whether there’s room for future changes to allow additional unlicensed psychotherapists
    • Balancing client care with administrative requirements — is a shift possible toward client-focused practice?
    • Exploring whether alternative professional titles are viable, given that “psychotherapist” is not a protected term
    • Addressing concerns about respect, wisdom, and possible ageism in regulatory language and practice
    • Reducing fear-based narratives — are professionals really at heightened risk of lawsuits, or is this being overstated?
