About Calee Litteken
Calee Litteken is a mental health counsellor and counselling supervisor based in Warwickshire in the United Kingdom, originally from Texas in the United States. She brings an honest, warm and open style to sessions, creating a space where clients can cry, laugh, express anger, or simply be quiet as needed. Her practice is integrative, drawing from humanistic, person-centred, existential, and cognitive behavioural therapy, with a strong emphasis on a person-centred way of working that honours each person’s perspective and autonomy.
She is accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - indicating recognised professional standing within the UK. Calee completed her counselling training at the University of North Texas in 2017, with particular interests in cognitive behavioural therapy, working with adolescents and young adults, and expressive arts therapy. She undertook LGBT affirmative therapy training at Southern Methodist University to better support diverse gender identities, sexualities, and relationship orientations. After moving to the UK in 2018 she completed a conversion psychology course at Coventry University, researching counselling self-efficacy with psychosis, and later earned a postgraduate certificate in Person-Centred Experiential Counselling from Nottingham University in 2022.
Her clinical experience spans crisis and suicide response teams in Texas, hospital liaison work with inpatients, voluntary counselling with Shakespeare Hospice from 2021 to 2023, and counselling for depression within the NHS. Calee has worked with a broad range of concerns including anxiety, depression, phobias, trauma, bereavement, gender identity, relationship diversity, self-esteem, workplace issues, sleep difficulties, and abuse. She aims to support people in finding their own answers and to stay alongside them through the difficult and awkward moments of therapy.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support with Calee Litteken
Client-centred therapy focuses on creating a respectful and non-directive space where the client’s experience guides the work. In this approach the therapist offers empathy and acceptance while helping people explore their values, identity, and what matters most to them - it can be especially helpful for issues of self-esteem, identity and relationship questions.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and working collaboratively to develop more adaptive ways of thinking and coping. CBT can be effective for anxiety, depression, panic and many everyday stressors by teaching practical strategies to manage symptoms and improve functioning.
Existential therapy invites exploration of meaning, choice and responsibility when people face life transitions, feelings of emptiness, or questions about purpose. It supports clients in confronting uncertainty and discovering personally meaningful ways to live. Calee approaches these models flexibly and will work with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences - the choice of approach is a collaborative process.
Online therapy with Calee is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access counselling from home, while allowing therapy to adapt to changing life demands and practical constraints.
