About Sallie

LMHC in Florida with 28 years of clinical experience, Sallie Trecek helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and parenting concerns. She also works with veterans and people from multicultural backgrounds and addresses trauma, ADHD, compassion fatigue, anger, intimacy issues, self-esteem, and life transitions.

Sallie uses a mix of practical methods. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses Mindfulness and Solution-Focused techniques for grounding and short-term problem solving.

Her background includes school counseling and teaching, which shaped her approach to working with life-stage questions and parenting struggles. That experience informs how she talks through concrete choices and coping strategies with people who feel stuck.

Sessions focus on clear goals and step-by-step changes. Sallie acts as a sounding board and a collaborator rather than giving prescriptive advice. Conversations tend to map problems, test small changes, and notice what helps in day-to-day life.

She frames therapy around practical options. Early sessions often clarify what a person wants to change and identify simple actions to try between meetings. Later work tracks progress and adjusts methods when needed.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. In an online setting this means conversations that center the person's priorities, with the therapist checking understanding and encouraging the client to steer the agenda.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioral changes. Online sessions often work the same way as in-person ones - identifying patterns, setting brief between-session experiments, and reviewing results at the next meeting.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple grounding and awareness exercises. These tools can be practiced during a session and used between meetings to manage anxiety, stress, or strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit the client's needs, and adjust strategies based on what helps. The client and therapist decide together which techniques to prioritize.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, exercises that fit daily routines, or not needing extra travel time. Licensed professionals often use this flexibility to keep therapy practical and consistent with everyday demands.
