Sallie Trecek, LPC, LMHC
About me
Hello and welcome! My name is Sallie Trecek and I congratulate you for reaching out! My hope is to help you turn whatever barriers are in your path right now into building blocks.
I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Oklahoma for over 20 years. I also have been a teacher and a school counselor in public schools. My background is varied which leads me to better understand my clients no matter their age or ethnic backgrounds. I have gained knowledge and experience in helping families overcome parenting hurtles and helping individuals get through challenging times in order to find and clarify their lives' paths. I have worked with people at all stages of their lives whether it be with their anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship difficulties or just "what do I want to do when I grow up"?
We all have choices, whether as an individual or a group, yet sometimes feel like we're "stuck" and see no clear path or options. As your therapist, I am a sounding board to help you sort out the issues then find and clarify your options. I will walk beside you in this journey and help you through whatever challenges you are facing. I listen carefully to your concerns and help you explore ways to improve your life by creating what you want instead of what you have. I have a very eclectic approach to therapy and use a variety of techniques helping you on this journey. The most important one to me is showing you unconditional positive regard.
It is my greatest hope that while working together you will be able to achieve a level of personal growth that you need to lead a happy and healthy life.

Sallie truly listened to my needs and always had a helpful answer. She worked with me through decades of hurt and negative thoughts to help me see another way of looking at things. From eating to friends to parenting to my relationship with my body, Sallie made such a difference in my life.

Sallie is a thoughtful, intuitive, and kind counselor. l look forward to our sessions and I always walk away with so much clarity, confirmation, and confidence. I am finally at a place in my life where I am ready to do the introspective work and ask myself the “hard” questions of why I do what I do. And boy has she been a guiding light down that dark tunnel! She has an amazing way of “telling it like it is” while gently encouraging you to be open to other perspectives. She is open minded, honest, and her years of experience in a variety of settings has clearly supplied her with an extensive toolbox full of guidance and creative solutions. I highly recommend her!!!

Sallie was just the right psychologist for me and I am really grateful that I had her as my counselor and to BetterHelp for the opportunity to have temporarily free of charge offer in this difficult situation. It was absolutely necessary in my case. And Sallie listened carefully to all what I had to say and provided me with variety of options and supporting materials to work with in order to understand better what is going on with me and what should I look at more carefully, what I should pay better attention to in the future. I would definitely recommend Sallie as a counselor. Not only she is a insightful psychologist but also a great optimistic person to talk to and that optimism also spreads on you and helps you go through a difficult situation or depressive state of mind.
