Sallie Trecek

Sallie Trecek is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. She works with clients who feel stuck and want clearer choices, whether that means coping with relationship strain, parenting pressures, or major changes. Sallie speaks English and accepts international clients.

She brings 28 years of experience and a varied background that includes school counseling and teaching. That experience shapes a practical style that aims to meet people where they are. In sessions she listens closely, offers a sounding board, and helps clients sort options and make workable plans.

Her approach combines client-centered listening with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness practices, along with solution-focused techniques when appropriate. Sallie emphasizes unconditional positive regard and tailors methods to each person's needs rather than following a single formula. Sessions often focus on immediate problems and small, achievable steps forward.

Sallie also attends to cultural and veteran-related concerns as part of her work. She aims to help people rebuild after loss, process trauma and abuse, manage anger, and strengthen self-esteem. Her goal is to support clients in creating the life they want instead of staying stuck.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability. Sallie uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary with location and availability.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Sallie draws on client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening and responding to each person's concerns. This approach helps people feel heard and helps identify what matters most to them.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people practice new ways of responding to stress or anxiety. Mindfulness techniques are used to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity during stressful situations.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Sallie will work with clients to pick methods that match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts plans as people try different strategies and see what works best for them.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy days and reducing travel time. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to maintain continuity during life transitions and to use short check-ins or longer sessions depending on what fits someone’s schedule.
