Dr. Tommy Frye, LMHC, LPC

Dr. Tommy Frye is a licensed counselor with 25 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and midlife transitions. He uses straightforward talk and active listening to help people name current problems and decide what to change. People describe practical help when they're feeling stuck or overwhelmed and need a clearer path forward.

He trained as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor, and he draws on several therapy styles to match what each person needs. Sessions focus on real-life skills and steps you can try between meetings. He pays attention to how thoughts, emotions, and behavior interact and looks for patterns that keep problems going.

In sessions he emphasizes a respectful, calm tone and gives space for people to share what matters most to them. He tends to use clear strategies from cognitive behavioral work and encourages mindfulness and present-moment noticing. He also uses client-centered ideas, which means the client's goals guide the plan.

Dr. Frye has worked with children, adolescents, and adults across many settings over his career. He helps with grief, addiction-related concerns, parenting questions, anger, self-esteem, career changes, ADHD, and coping with major life events. He also supports people dealing with trauma, attachment and caregiver stress.

Dr. Frye accepts international clients and works with people across Florida. To begin, he asks about your main concern and collaborates on a treatment plan that fits your life and goals.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Dr. Frye uses client-centered work to follow each person's priorities, focusing sessions on what matters most to the individual and building a plan from their goals. This approach helps people feel heard and keeps the work practical and relevant to daily life.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches clear skills for changing unhelpful patterns. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and managing stress during life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. He will collaborate with each person to decide which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjust the plan as progress is made. The work is meant to be interactive and solution-oriented rather than strictly prescriptive.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the profile does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for meeting times and the session length that fits your routine.
