About Brenda
Brenda Sallee is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people manage anger, stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day. Her style is warm and grounded, aimed at helping people feel heard and make steady progress.
For about ten years she has guided people through grief, addiction concerns, parenting stress, and life transitions. Sessions often include short skill-building exercises to handle strong emotions and improve communication.
Background and approach
Brenda favors clear, usable tools over long theory talks. Her work draws on several evidence-based approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, for example, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches ways to change unhelpful patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills for intense feelings. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and adapting support to each person’s needs. Brenda also uses narrative ideas to help people reframe difficult stories from their past.
Internal Family Systems can help identify different parts of the self and reduce inner conflict. These methods are mixed together to suit a person’s goals, not used as rigid rules. She practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English.
People meet with her by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging when that format fits their life. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time to meet.

Approaches that work well online
Brenda often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood through targeted exercises. Client-Centered Therapy centers on careful listening and tailoring support to each person, helping clients feel understood and supported as they set goals.She also brings elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy into remote work when emotion regulation or distress-tolerance skills are needed. DBT supplies concrete tools for managing strong feelings and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be practiced between sessions and reviewed together.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Brenda discusses your goals and preferences and adapts methods as you progress. She will suggest experiments and homework, then check in to see what helps and what needs changing.
Online formats offer flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited travel options. Video calls work well for full therapeutic conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins, and text-based messaging supports quick reflections or between-session notes. These options help fit therapy into real life and keep momentum when challenges arise.
