About Tommy
Dr. Tommy Frye brings 25 years of counseling experience to work with people facing a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, ADHD, bipolar disorder, career change, and coping with life transitions.
Background and approach
He also focuses on topics such as adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, communication and commitment problems, divorce and separation, domestic violence, and forgiveness and shame. Based in Florida, he is licensed as an LMHC and LPC and accepts clients both locally and internationally.
Frye favors an empathetic, client-centered atmosphere where individuals and couples can feel heard and supported. He commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques alongside client-centered and emotionally-focused methods, and integrates mindfulness and motivational interviewing where appropriate.
His goal is to collaborate with each person to identify pressing issues and build a practical treatment plan aimed at improving functioning across physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual domains. He typically responds by the next business day and welcomes an initial conversation to determine whether his approach fits a client’s needs.
Integrating approaches for effective online care
Dr. Frye commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment that prioritizes the client’s perspective and fosters self-directed growth. When appropriate, Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used to help couples and individuals explore emotional patterns and strengthen important relationships.Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Frye works with clients to assess needs, goals, and personal preferences and then tailors methods so they fit the individual’s situation rather than applying a single technique indiscriminately. This teamwork helps clients test approaches and adjust course as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules and geographic limitations. These options allow clients to access licensed professionals from wherever they are, maintain continuity during life changes, and choose the format that best supports their comfort and availability.
