How Frankie's Approaches Work Online
Frankie often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavior changes that reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. This approach is practical and focuses on skills that can be practiced between sessions.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a supportive, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through their experiences and decide what matters most to them. That method helps when someone needs to make sense of major life changes or relationship struggles.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Frankie discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods as needed. The plan is collaborative so the approach fits the problem and the client’s comfort level.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and longer therapy work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, progress notes, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and maintain regular contact with a licensed professional.
