Sallie Freeman , LPC

Sallie Freeman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with ten years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, relationship strains, and questions about identity. Her approach is calm and direct and she aims to make sessions feel practical and relevant to everyday life.

Sallie works with clients on issues related to parenting, career choices, and the particular challenges women face. She also offers support around LGBT concerns, gender dysphoria, and sexual identity in a respectful, affirming manner. Conversations are straightforward and centered on each person’s goals.

In sessions she uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and ACT, or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, to build values-based action. She also draws on client-centered and existential ideas to help people clarify meaning and make choices that fit their lives.

Sallie also addresses relationship problems, including infidelity, separation, and non-monogamous arrangements, using practical strategies for better communication. For couples work she may incorporate elements of the Gottman Method to improve interaction patterns.

Clients can expect short-term problem solving as well as deeper work on life purpose, family of origin issues, and end-of-life concerns. Sessions move at a pace set by the client and focus on clear steps to reduce distress and strengthen what matters most.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice thoughts without getting stuck and take small actions that match their values. This can help with anxiety, stress, and decisions about relationships or identity.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them. It is useful for anxiety, obsessions, phobias, and everyday stressors.

Client-centered work emphasizes listening and following the client's lead to clarify goals and build self-trust. Combined with ACT and CBT, it supports both short-term problem solving and deeper meaning-making.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend steps to try. This is a collaborative process with adjustments over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video lets people speak face-to-face; phone works well when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text can be a shorter check-in during a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, childcare, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on practical progress.
