Charity was thoughtful, personable, and really allowed me to do the work myself. She was always there to guide me (or call me out when necessary) but it was at my pace and always with my well being in mind. A great experience overall and I highly recommend Avid.

04/20/2025I worked with both Thaen and Jason at Avid Counseling. With Thaen, I was pursuing EMDR which was surprisingly easy through virtual counseling. She is incredibly thoughtful, clearly pays close attention her clients, and very easy to work with. I really appreciated Jason's motivational parenting approach and saw very fast results in how I engage with and ensure they have a supported and bonded relationship as they grow. Highly recommend working with either of these therapists.

06/15/2024It is very hard to a qualified and competent therapist thesedays, and even harder to find one that is a good fit. This process can take months to accomplish. But I was fortunate enough to call AVID Counseling and immediately got to speak with Dr. Saelee, and we were able to set up an intake appointment in a matter of weeks. I've worked with both Dr. Saelee, individually and Jason Wilcox, LCSW in couples counseling and both have been tremendously helpful. I would recommend both of them to anyone. They are wonderful, devoted, competent mental health care providers who use a patient-centered appoach and value transparancy.

Dr. Saelee has been so helpful in my therapy journey! Her style working through EMDR and somatic techniques has been really impactful. I really appreciate her asking guiding and validating questions that help me better understand how and why I'm feeling what I feel.

02/15/2024Recently had a chance to work with Dr. Saelee and the session was great. She is very patient, understanding, and a great listener. She has helped my family and I through our tough time and helped us communicated our feelings and thoughts clearly. Thank you Dr. Saelee.

03/15/2024I could not possibly over stress what a life changing experience it was doing weekly therapy sessions with Dr Thaen over the last 9 months. I recently moved states and was heart broken to have to end my therapy sessions with Dr Thaen, but I feel so, so incredibly lucky to have had such a safe space to process through some of the most painful experiences of my life. She was unendingly patient, kind, empathetic and consistently offered her perspective with the framing of 'let me know if this connects with you', which made me feel so comfortable expressing if at times her read wasn't exactly on the mark. I felt so incredibly comfortable sharing experiences that I hadn't even voiced aloud to a single other human. I'm in such a better place in my life, and I can't help but express an incredible amount of gratitude for Dr. Thaen and her intuitive and inquisitive care. She met me with kindness at every turn and helped to unlock some of the unconscious patterns that had been a mystery to myself. I could not possibly recommend her more throughly!!

Dr. T. Saelee is very professional and flexible with her schedule. She is understanding and non judgemental. She made clients feel comfortable and used plain vocabulary to make it easy to understand. Saelee also offers session virtually and in the language Mien. Highly recommend her.

03/15/2024Dr.Saelee is a wonderful practitioner who has challenged me in many ways over the past 9 months. She's been someone who I've recommended to friends, and trust to always bring her best self to our sessions. She's always open to adjusting her working style to suit my needs, brings different modalities to our sessions to find what works best, and is constantly improving her work through her continued education in her field (not to mention that she's a published author!). I would recommend her to anyone and has been a force of change in my life.

09/15/2023I have been under Dr. Saelee's care for a little over a year and she is absolutely wonderful to work with. She is very insightful, kind, and patient. She helps guide our sessions so that I can explore new areas and sources of my anxiety and depression on my own. She asks questions that have opened my eyes to so many things I haven't been able to recognize by myself. I highly recommend her and feel so lucky to have been able to use her services!
