About Michele
With 23 years of experience, Dr. Frey tailors conversations and plans to each person’s situation. She listens for what matters most and helps set clear, achievable goals. Sessions often focus on identifying patterns, building coping skills, and developing actions that fit daily life.
She also brings attention to issues that can shape a person’s experience, such as aging concerns, multicultural stressors, personality challenges, prejudice and discrimination, and recovery after sexual assault and abuse. That background helps her spot practical barriers and next steps that matter to each person.
Dr. Frey emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in the work. She encourages people to take small, steady steps toward what they want to change. If someone is ready to try counseling, she works with them to create a plan and adjust it as progress is made.
People who prefer straightforward guidance and a collaborative approach may find this style helpful. Before scheduling, confirm current session options and formats to make sure they match your needs.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Dr. Frey uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage addictions and mood concerns. One common approach focuses on building coping skills and concrete behavior changes to reduce harmful patterns and support recovery. This approach helps by breaking problems into small steps and practicing new responses in daily life.Another frequent emphasis is on grief and life transitions, using supportive, problem-focused conversations to help people adapt and find practical ways to move forward. These sessions typically center on pacing change, identifying what helps day to day, and setting short-term goals that feel doable.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help you choose methods that fit your needs, goals, and personal preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made. This is a collaborative process where your feedback guides what comes next.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about how sessions can be scheduled to match your routine and to focus on practical change without promising any specific outcome.
