About Frankie
Frankie Ter Keurst is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She has six years of clinical experience helping people cope with anxiety, stress, depression, and life transitions. Frankie aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for worried parents and busy adults.
She keeps sessions warm and down-to-earth. Conversations focus on the problems you bring and on clear steps to manage them.
Background and approach
Frankie listens without judgment and works with each person to build a plan that fits their life and goals. Her background includes work at an inpatient crisis stabilization center and experience with people who have faced physical trauma or emotional abuse. She has collaborated with the Department of Children and Families and with intensive outpatient programs during that time.
Those roles gave her hands-on experience in crisis and transition situations. Frankie blends several therapy styles to match what a person needs. She uses cognitive approaches to identify unhelpful thinking, attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns, and client-centered methods to keep the work focused on the individual's values.
Mindfulness tools and emotionally-focused techniques are added when they fit the plan. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Frankie helps people work on parenting stress, relationship strain, addiction concerns, ADHD symptoms, grief, and self-esteem.
The goal is steady progress through clear, practical steps chosen together.
How therapy approaches guide online care
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and feelings. It helps people who notice repeated trust issues, fear of abandonment, or trouble relying on others by exploring those patterns and building safer ways of relating.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test them against real-life evidence. It is practical and skill-focused, useful for worries, anxiety, mood shifts, and everyday coping strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then tailor the mix of methods together with the client. This keeps the work collaborative and focused on what actually helps the person move forward.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat or text messaging can work for quick check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or when writing feels easier. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit daily life.
