Sallie Freeman

Sallie Freeman is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage worry, relationship struggles, and issues around identity. Sallie creates an affirming space for LGBTQIA2S+ people and others seeking support.

Sallie offers help for stress and anxiety in plain, practical ways. She also addresses relationship concerns, parenting strain, and career questions. Divorce and separation, family of origin issues, and problems that come up around gender and sexuality are included in her work.

Her approach combines several therapy styles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and build different habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take steps that matter despite difficult feelings.

Client-Centered Therapy guides the pace and focus of sessions based on each person's experience. The Gottman Method informs how Sallie talks about relationship patterns and communication. Existential work supports people facing big life questions and decisions.

Sallie also supports people dealing with OCD, phobias, hoarding, infidelity, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and the stresses of prejudice and discrimination. She frames goals collaboratively and uses straightforward techniques to help people move forward.

Therapy approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values even when strong feelings are present. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life-direction questions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and practicing different ways of thinking and acting. It can help with anxiety, OCD, phobias, and mood struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sallie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She adapts techniques over time based on what the client finds useful.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find virtual sessions helpful for staying consistent during major life changes such as separation or relocation, and therapists can use ACT and CBT tools effectively in remote sessions.
