About Sallie

Sallie Freeman is a licensed professional counselor with ten years of clinical experience based in Texas. She offers an affirming approach and helps people who are dealing with anxiety, OCD, relationship strains, and questions about identity. Her work is grounded in listening first and helping clients set clear goals for change.

She focuses on practical tools alongside deeper reflection. Sessions often include talking through current worries, experimenting with small behavior changes, and noticing values to guide decisions. For relationship concerns she uses techniques that help partners communicate more clearly and solve specific conflicts.

Sallie draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the session focused on each person’s priorities. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thoughts, avoidance, and actions that keep problems going. These methods give concrete steps as well as space to make meaning from difficult experiences.

She works with people across a range of issues including stress, parenting questions, career choices, grief, and sexual identity concerns. Sallie also supports people facing divorce and separation, family-of-origin conflicts, hoarding, and challenges around non-monogamous relationships. Her approach aims to be straightforward and respectful.

Location and logistics are handled through the standard intake steps on the site. Sessions are conducted in English. Prospective clients are asked to complete a brief matching questionnaire before scheduling so Sallie can understand needs and plan first steps.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person in front of the therapist. It emphasizes empathy and helping people set their own goals. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to actions that reflect their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and uses specific exercises to reduce anxiety or compulsive patterns.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Sallie will start by asking about immediate needs and what outcomes matter to you. From there she will recommend practices to try and adapt them based on your goals and what feels workable in everyday life.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what options are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support couples or partners who live apart by letting them join from different locations. Licensed professionals tailor session length and tools to match each person’s situation and goals.
