About Tommy

Dr. Tommy Frye greets clients with a direct focus on the issues that bring them to therapy. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, and relationship or intimacy concerns. He also supports those coping with grief, parenting and fatherhood issues, ADHD, life changes, and career concerns. Dr. Frye brings 25 years of clinical experience to his work in Florida and with international clients in English.

He shapes sessions around what each person needs. He listens first and helps set clear, practical goals together. Sessions include task-oriented tools from cognitive behavioral approaches alongside conversations that let people reflect on feelings and patterns. Mindfulness exercises and motivational interviewing strategies are used when helpful to build momentum and coping skills.

Tom prefers a warm, straightforward tone in sessions. He aims to create a space where people feel heard and can talk about their most pressing concerns. He works with relationship issues and has a long history of marital counseling, often helping individuals and couples improve communication and connection.

Dr. Frye holds the Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential and the Licensed Professional Counselor credential, and he uses those lenses to guide treatment planning. He will typically respond by the next business day when contacted through the platform.

If someone wants to start, he asks about the main problem first and then co-creates a plan that fits daily life. His goal is helping people move toward greater functioning emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually.

How Dr. Frye’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in the room. The therapist offers attentive listening and reflects back what matters most so clients can make their own choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and patterns and replaces them with practical strategies that reduce anxiety, depression, and impulsive behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and process core emotions and can be useful for improving communication and closeness in relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Frye collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences. He will check in about what is working and adapt the plan over time, so clients get a fit that feels useful for them.

The biography did not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins can work during a lunch break, and non-video phone sessions may be helpful when bandwidth is limited or being on camera feels difficult. Many people find that meeting remotely reduces travel time and makes consistent scheduling more practical. Licensed professionals can guide how techniques like CBT or mindfulness translate to remote sessions and help clients practice skills between meetings.
