About Callie
Callie Gruenwald is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 12 years of clinical experience. She earned a master’s degree in Community Counseling from Oklahoma State University and has provided care in outpatient, residential, and home-based settings. Callie focuses on practical help and clear communication so people feel heard and understood from the first session.
She prefers a client-led approach where the person sets the pace and goals. Callie helps people notice thoughts and habits that help them and those that hold them back.
Background and approach
She also highlights existing strengths and coping skills to build on what already works. Callie draws on several evidence-informed approaches to help with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, trauma, and parenting concerns. Sessions tend to focus on skills people can use between meetings and on adjusting unhelpful patterns in daily life.
She aims to be compassionate, direct, and practical in sessions. Her background includes work with adults facing mental health diagnoses and life transitions, plus roles supporting women with addiction and relationship challenges. That variety has shaped a flexible style that adapts to different needs and settings.
Callie offers sessions in multiple online formats including video and live chat, along with phone and text options. She works with people in Georgia and conducts sessions in English. If someone prefers a collaborative, skills-focused approach that centers their goals, Callie provides steady guidance and straightforward feedback.

How therapeutic approaches adapt to online parenting work
Callie uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people manage difficult thoughts and take actions that match their values. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing meaningful actions even when feelings are hard. CBT breaks down patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to change them.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where people set the agenda. Sessions are collaborative so the therapist and client decide together which approach or mix of approaches fits best based on goals and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexibility for parents and busy adults. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit support into a busy day and to share thoughts between sessions. These options let people continue steady work on stress, parenting concerns, and coping skills without changing their routines.
