About Sallie
Sallie Freeman is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 10 years of experience based in Texas. She helps people with anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting issues, questions about identity, OCD and phobias, and stress that shows up in daily life.
Sallie uses clear, practical techniques in sessions. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address anxious thoughts and unhelpful behavior patterns. She also practices Client-Centered Therapy and existential approaches to help people clarify values and meaning.
Her work includes supporting people dealing with relationship challenges, infidelity, divorce and separation, and different forms of non-monogamous relationships. Sallie lists experience with gender dysphoria, LGBT matters, prejudice and discrimination, and sexuality as areas she attends to in conversation.
Sessions focus on small, doable steps. That might look like practicing a short experiment between meetings, noticing thought patterns together, or building clearer communication with a partner. Concepts from the Gottman Method appear when relationship skills are part of the work.
She also addresses life transitions such as hospice and end-of-life concerns, career and life purpose, and ongoing struggles like hoarding and obsessive-compulsive behaviors. People who value a collaborative, talk-and-do style of therapy often find this approach helpful.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values; it can help when anxiety or avoidance limits daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and uses practical exercises to change patterns that keep anxiety and phobias active. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own experience and priorities, offering time to reflect and decide what matters most.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sallie will help identify which methods fit a person's goals and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as needs change. This is a collaborative process where the person and therapist try different techniques and track what helps.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people use that flexibility to practice skills between meetings and apply them to real-life social situations.
