About Tommy
Dr. Tommy Frye is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience. He practices in Florida and focuses on concerns common in early adulthood such as stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, career worries, and coping with life changes. He also works with grief, addiction, trauma, ADHD, and other challenges young adults often face.
Dr. Frye uses clear, practical methods in sessions. He favors client-centered conversations and cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. He also draws on emotionally-focused work and mindfulness strategies when feelings or connection are central to the problem.
In sessions he listens for the most pressing problem and helps build a straightforward plan. That plan may include short-term goals, coping skills, and steps to address relationships or work stresses. He aims to keep sessions focused and action-oriented when that helps, and more exploratory when people want to understand patterns from their past.
Over a long career Dr. Frye has worked in a variety of settings with different age groups. He describes marital and couples work as a strength and has experience helping people with parenting and attachment concerns. He also has experience with issues that arise after major life events, including separation, loss, and caregiving strain.
Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach center the client's goals and let the therapist follow the client's pace, which can suit people figuring out next steps after school or a job change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online sessions CBT is used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns, try small behavior changes, and build coping skills for anxiety, depression, or work stress.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name strong emotions and their effect on relationships. This approach is useful when intimacy, communication, or attachment issues are the main concern.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and will recommend using one method or combining techniques. That discussion is collaborative and can change over time as goals evolve.
The original profile does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm the current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow for quieter or camera-free check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals adapt exercises, homework, and check-ins so therapy can fit into everyday life without requiring a big schedule change.
