About Frankie
Frankie Ter Keurst is a licensed counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. She works with people dealing with trauma, addiction, ADHD, grief, and the ups and downs of life. Frankie writes that she listens with warmth and respect and aims to support people who want to find clearer ways forward.
Frankie has six years of clinical experience and has worked in inpatient crisis stabilization settings during her graduate internship and post-graduate registered intern period. That work included supporting people after physical or emotional abuse and collaborating with child welfare systems and court-related care pathways. She has also been involved with intensive outpatient programs.
Her approach blends evidence-informed strategies with a human-centered way of working. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help change unhelpful thinking and behaviors, and she uses attachment-based and emotionally-focused techniques to look at how relationships affect feelings and patterns. Mindfulness practices are used to build calm and present-moment awareness.
Frankie prefers to shape treatment around each person’s needs and goals. Sessions are guided by direct conversation, gentle challenge when helpful, and practical steps you can use between meetings. She emphasizes respect, avoids labels, and encourages client input when planning next steps.
She holds LPCC and LMHC credentials and practices from Florida. Sessions are conducted in English.
How Frankie’s approaches work in online sessions
Frankie uses attachment-based methods to look at how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. This approach can help when trust, abandonment, or recurring relationship patterns cause distress.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and acting. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Frankie will talk with each person about their needs and goals and try different techniques until a helpful fit emerges. She invites client input when shaping session focus and homework tasks.
Her biography lists video, phone call, and text message sessions, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a phone check-in can be shorter and fit a work break, video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, and text sessions can support quick reflections between meetings. These options can help people maintain consistency and bring therapy into their regular routine.
