About Frania
Frania Sortillon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Arizona. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, and the effects of past trauma. Her work centers on practical steps people can use right away to feel steadier and more able to cope.
She draws on a Christian-informed perspective to offer empathy and nonjudgmental support. Sessions often include building self-compassion, improving everyday communication, and addressing feelings of isolation or social anxiety.
Background and approach
Frania aims to make therapy feel direct and usable rather than vague or overly technical. Many people come to her struggling with low self-esteem, guilt or shame, and questions about life purpose. She helps them break these problems into manageable tasks and goals.
That can mean learning specific coping skills, practicing different ways of talking with others, or building routines that reduce stress. Frania has six years of experience as an LPC in Arizona. She combines a collaborative style with clear guidance so clients know what to try between sessions.
The emphasis is on small changes that add up over time. Her approach suits people who want a straightforward, values-aware counselor who will listen and offer concrete tools. Frania works with each person to find realistic steps toward greater calm, clearer thinking, and stronger self-regard.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Frania uses a few evidence-based techniques to help people manage anxiety, stress, and symptoms of depression. One approach emphasizes building self-compassion and self-care routines to reduce harsh self-criticism and improve daily coping. Another focuses on practical communication skills and role practice to lessen social anxiety and ease relationship strain. Each method centers on steps people can try between sessions to notice real change.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked in the past. Together they decide which techniques to try first and adjust methods as progress is made.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video works well for in-depth conversations, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging let someone check in quickly, do shorter check-ins, or continue work between longer sessions. These formats help people fit therapy into busy days and keep momentum toward their goals.
