Calee Litteken, BACP

Calee Litteken is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience. She holds accreditation with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and trained in the United States before completing further postgraduate study in the UK. Calee brings a warm, honest, and down-to-earth manner to sessions.

Her approach centres on the person in front of her. Calee listens without assuming she knows the right answers. She encourages clients to name what matters to them and helps them discover their own ways forward. Sessions can include moments of strong emotion, humour or quiet reflection depending on what someone needs.

Calee integrates different therapeutic ideas, though much of her work is person-centred. She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and existential thinking where useful. This mix lets her tailor the work to immediate problems like panic or low mood as well as bigger life questions about purpose or identity.

Her background includes training at the University of North Texas and a postgraduate certificate in Person-Centred Experiential Counselling from Nottingham University. She has experience supporting people through grief, hospital transitions and end-of-life related worries from voluntary roles with a hospice, and she has worked in NHS services for depression.

People come to Calee for many reasons including anxiety, trauma, bereavement, identity and relationship concerns, burnout and career stress. She invites a collaborative process and aims to stay alongside clients through the difficult and awkward parts of change.

How these approaches come alive online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding the person's experience and offering empathic listening that helps people feel heard and understood; it is useful for exploring identity, life purpose and self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical strategies to manage anxiety, panic or low mood. Existential Therapy invites reflection on meaning, values and choice when someone feels stuck or overwhelmed by life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. The counsellor will work collaboratively to decide what feels most helpful, mixing ideas where needed and adjusting as goals evolve. This means sessions can shift between practical skill-building and deeper reflective work depending on what the client wants.

The original biography did not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. It can also let someone choose setups such as audio-only or video conversations for practical reasons like bandwidth, energy levels or the need for a quieter experience rather than a full face-to-face meeting.
