She is an active member of the Licensed Professional Counselor Association of Georgia and is credentialed as a Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor by the LPCA of Georgia, reflecting additional training in supporting other counselors.

Her clinical focus includes depression, anxiety, mood disorders and related concerns such as stress, self-esteem struggles, coping with life changes, addictions, relationship and family issues, grief, parenting challenges, anger, career difficulties and bipolar disorder. She also pays special attention to codependency and young adult issues. Dr. Frye uses evidence-informed interventions to help clients reduce symptoms, change unhelpful patterns and pursue practical goals. She works collaboratively with each person to define treatment aims and select interventions that match their unique story and circumstances.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is a practical, skills-based approach that helps clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to depression, anxiety and mood disturbances. Through structured exercises and real-life practice, CBT supports improvements in emotional regulation, problem solving and daily functioning.

Clinical hypnotherapy, informed by Dr. Frye’s certification, can be used as a complementary technique to support habit change, stress reduction and behavioral goals. It often involves focused relaxation and guided imagery to reinforce new ways of responding to triggers and routines.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Dr. Frye collaborates with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people balancing busy schedules or limited local options. Video calls allow for face-to-face connection, phone sessions provide a convenient alternative, and live chat or text-based messaging can support shorter, flexible interactions between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and access licensed professionals from different locations.
