About Solveig
Solveig Frivold is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, and parenting concerns. She also supports those dealing with trauma, grief, mood disorders, and questions about intimacy and self-esteem. Solveig writes plainly and aims to make starting therapy simple for worried parents and busy adults.
She draws on several approaches to shape sessions around each person. That can mean focusing on emotional connection in close relationships, tracking how past attachments affect today, or using trauma-focused tools when memories cause intense distress.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and practical. Solveig helps clients name what feels hard and practice different ways to respond. Her background includes six years of clinical experience and licensure as an LMFT in Washington.
She has worked across cultures and with people from many regions, which informs her sensitivity to different family patterns and values. English is the language used for sessions. Therapy with her tends to be collaborative.
She listens first, then suggests small, doable steps clients can try between meetings. Parents can expect clear guidance about communication, boundaries, and coping strategies that fit family life and daily routines. Solveig offers several session formats to fit varied schedules.
She will work with each person to pick the way that best suits their needs and helps progress toward their goals.
Online approaches that focus on attachment and trauma
Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people see how past bonding affects trust, closeness, and reactions in their closest relationships. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on feelings in couple or close relationship work and helps partners notice and change unhelpful interaction cycles to improve connection. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on addressing the impact of traumatic events, teaching ways to reduce intense reactions and rebuild daily functioning.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your concerns, goals, and preferences and then recommend which methods to try. That choice is collaborative and can change as progress unfolds so techniques match what actually helps you.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and reading nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients send notes between sessions and fit counseling into busy days. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and practice new skills in everyday life.
