About Sallie

Sallie Freeman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress and anxiety, as well as relationship and parenting concerns. She creates an affirming environment for LGBTQIA2S+ clients and others exploring questions about identity and purpose.

In sessions she listens carefully and helps people name what matters to them. She blends practical tools with talking through feelings so clients can try different ways of coping. She often uses approaches that focus on values, present-moment action, and changing unhelpful thinking patterns.

Her background includes work with people dealing with obsessive thoughts, phobias, and social anxiety. She also supports those navigating divorce, infidelity, family problems, and end-of-life concerns. Her practice attends to issues of gender dysphoria, sexuality, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination.

Sallie draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered work, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential ideas, and the Gottman Method for relationship-focused sessions. She adapts methods to each person’s needs rather than following a single script.

People come to her when they need straightforward strategies and a steady, respectful presence. She helps clients set small, manageable goals and try new behaviors between sessions. Her aim is to help people reduce distress and move toward clearer values and better daily functioning.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Sallie commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and taking actions that reflect those values even when uncomfortable feelings are present. It can help with anxiety, stress, and questions about life direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical skills to reduce worry, manage intrusive thoughts, and change avoidance patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sallie works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals and preferences. Together they will try approaches, see what helps, and adjust the plan as needed so the work fits the person rather than the other way around.

If you are considering online therapy with her, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes ongoing weekly work more practical for people with tight schedules. Discussing goals and practical constraints during the first sessions helps shape a plan that works within everyday routines.
