About Frankie

Frankie Ter Keurst is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing from Florida. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and low self esteem. Her manner is warm and direct, aimed at making tough conversations feel manageable. Frankie invites honest talk and practical steps toward change.

She trained through a graduate internship and post-graduate registered intern experience at an inpatient crisis stabilization center. That work included supporting people after traumatic events and collaborating with child welfare systems and court processes. Frankie has six years of clinical experience working with a wide range of concerns, including mood disorders, ADHD, addiction, and experiences of abuse.

Frankie blends approaches to match each person's needs. She draws from cognitive-behavioral methods to address unhelpful thinking, client-centered care to center the person's goals, and attachment-focused ideas to understand relationship patterns. Mindfulness and emotionally-focused techniques also inform sessions when helpful.

In practical terms she aims to create a clear plan together. Sessions focus on concrete skills, clearer communication, and small steps that fit into daily life. Frankie frames therapy as collaborative work where the client guides priorities and she offers tools and perspective.

She conducts sessions in English and asks people to use the continue button on this profile to begin the matching process and schedule a time that works for them.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships influence current feelings and patterns. In sessions this can mean talking through how early bonds affect trust and closeness and practicing new ways to relate. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions; sessions use practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build coping skills for anxiety, depression, and mood shifts.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's goals and day-to-day life. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than following a one-size-fits-all route.

Many people find online sessions easier to fit into their schedules and routines. Online work can allow shorter check-ins by phone or text and full conversations over video when more depth is needed. Because session formats can change, confirm the exact options available when you schedule so they match your needs and daily commitments.
