Background and approach

She also helps with issues like body image, communication problems, and blended family concerns. In sessions she focuses on how personal stories shape feelings and behavior. She invites clients to look at the messages that have guided them - which ones help now and which might be holding them back.

She encourages clients to lead the work and brings practical tools from approaches such as Narrative therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

How Callie's Approaches Work Online

Callie draws on Narrative therapy to help people separate themselves from the stories they carry. That approach helps clients see how past messages shape current problems and decide which stories to keep or revise. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, is also part of her work and focuses on accepting difficult emotions while taking steps toward meaningful values and actions.

She uses a Client-Centered stance as well, which means the client directs the pace and goals of therapy while the therapist offers support and reflection. Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Callie will collaborate with the client to try methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences and will adapt based on what helps most.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and nonverbal cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed, chat and text offer flexibility for brief updates between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules and let clients try what suits them best.
