About Sallie

Sallie Trecek is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 28 years of experience based in Florida. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, and life transitions. She also addresses concerns such as anger, self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, compassion fatigue, and ADHD, and offers support around veteran and multicultural concerns.

She describes her role as a careful listener who helps people sort through problems and clarify options. Sessions tend to focus on identifying practical steps that can ease day-to-day strain. Sallie uses straightforward conversation to help clients decide what they want to change and how to move toward it.

Her background includes long clinical experience and work in schools, which informs how she approaches parenting and family-related concerns. That variety of settings shaped a flexible way of working rather than a single technique. She draws on different methods to fit the situation at hand.

In practice she commonly uses Client-Centered approaches to follow the client's lead, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and shift unhelpful thinking, mindfulness techniques to manage stress, and Solution-Focused methods to build concrete steps forward. These are woven together in plain language and short, practical exercises when helpful.

People considering help are invited to think about what they want to change and how they cope now. Sallie aims to be a steady collaborator who listens, offers straightforward feedback, and helps clients create manageable next steps toward clearer choices.

How sessions work

How Sallie uses practical approaches in online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps when someone needs a steady, nonjudgmental listener to sort through feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it emphasizes small changes in thinking and behavior that can reduce distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sallie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and recommend which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since they are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments from different locations. Some formats also let people use shorter check-ins or avoid being on camera when that helps them engage. These practical options can make it simpler to work on parenting stress, relationship strain, or coping with life changes while maintaining a regular routine.
