01About Fred
Fred (Frederick) Theobald helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and relationship struggles. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor, with LPC and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor credentials, and brings 15 years of experience to his work. Fred works with LGBTQ+ clients and people coping with grief, caregiver strain, or major life changes.
He keeps sessions straightforward and focused on practical steps. Conversations center on what is happening now, what patterns keep causing pain, and small changes that can make daily life easier.
Background and approach
He uses clear tools to reduce anxious thoughts, manage strong emotions, and improve sleep and self-esteem. His background includes long-term clinical work in Texas and New Mexico, where he gained experience with trauma, addiction, and first responder issues. Fred also supports people dealing with aging and geriatric concerns, chronic illness, and complex grief.
He brings steady, calm guidance to difficult topics like abandonment, dissociation, and relationship conflict. Therapy sessions often mix talking with skill-building exercises. He may introduce techniques from cognitive behavioral approaches, acceptance-based work, attachment-focused thinking, and emotion-regulation skills.
The emphasis is on skills people can use between sessions to handle stress and feel more in control. Clients can expect a respectful, nonjudgmental setting where goals are set together. Fred aims to help people notice what matters to them, try new ways of coping, and make gradual, meaningful changes in everyday life.

04Online support
Approach choices and how online therapy fits
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. ACT can help people who feel stuck or overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how early bonds shape current connection and trust; this approach can help with intimacy problems, abandonment concerns, and communication difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals, needs, and preferences rather than using one fixed method. Together they try techniques, track what helps, and adjust the plan over time.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let you use visual cues and more in-depth conversation while fitting sessions into a busy day. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to stay connected between sessions, share quick updates, or work through feelings as they come up. These options provide flexibility so people can access consistent support that fits their routine and comfort level.
