About Callie

Callie Baquero is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on practical support for everyday parenting and family stress. She speaks plainly and helps parents and caregivers build usable coping skills for daily life. Parents often come for help with anxiety, depression, body image, eating-related concerns, and changes after separation or childbirth.

Callie uses mindfulness and movement to ground conversations. She draws on techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach simple skills you can try between sessions.

Background and approach

She encourages people to notice what already works for them and to practice new ways of responding to hard moments. Sessions balance talk and action. Callie emphasizes the mind-body connection she also teaches as a pilates instructor.

That can mean learning breathing, grounding, or gentle movement alongside emotional skills work. She has nine years of clinical experience and holds the Florida license FL LMFT MT3738 as a licensed marriage and family therapist. Callie works with a wide range of concerns including parenting challenges, grief, addictions, intimacy issues, and life transitions.

Work is collaborative and paced to fit a family schedule. Callie accepts international clients and offers English-language sessions in several online formats to fit busy lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their thoughts without getting stuck in them and then act toward what matters. It can be useful for anxiety, parenting stress, and life transitions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress in the moment.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and daily life. That means trying skills in session and adjusting tools based on what helps most.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy family schedule. Callie offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so parents can choose what works best on any given day. These options allow for flexible check-ins, skill practice between meetings, and support when in-person visits are hard to arrange.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
