Frankie Ter Keurst

Frankie Ter Keurst is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, and ADHD. She practices from Florida and aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where people can talk honestly about what is hard for them.

Frankie draws on six years of clinical experience that include work in an inpatient crisis stabilization setting. She has supported people dealing with trauma, emotional abuse, self-harm, and complex presentations that include personality issues and co-occurring conditions. Her background includes collaboration with child welfare systems and intensive outpatient programs.

Her style is warm and compassionate, and she emphasizes listening first. Frankie avoids labels that stigmatize and lets clients lead when possible while offering practical ideas to try between sessions. She tailors treatment plans with input from each person rather than following a fixed script.

Clinically, Frankie uses approaches rooted in cognitive behavioral ideas, attachment-focused work, and client-centered care. She also integrates emotionally-focused and mindfulness practices to help people manage symptoms and improve relationships over time. These methods are used in ways that match each person's goals.

Frankie offers video, phone call, and text message sessions. Because logistics matter, she works with each person to decide which way of meeting fits their life. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Frankie uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try concrete changes in behavior. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and managing daily stressors.

She also draws from attachment-based therapy, which looks at how early connection patterns affect current relationships and emotional responses. This work helps people improve how they relate to others and manage feelings tied to attachment and abandonment issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Frankie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. She adapts sessions over time if something isn't working and encourages practical steps between meetings.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life. They can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer options for people who prefer phone or text over video. The biography lists video, phone call, and text message sessions, so confirm the currently supported formats when booking to match scheduling and communication preferences.
