About Frankie

Frankie Ter Keurst is a licensed counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. She works with individuals dealing with trauma, abuse, addiction, ADHD, and life transitions. Frankie brings a calm, respectful presence and listens with curiosity and care.

She earned clinical experience through a graduate internship and post-graduate work at an inpatient crisis stabilization center. That work included supporting people with self-harm, personality disorders, and those referred through the Department of Children and Families and Baker Act processes. Frankie has also collaborated with intensive outpatient program teams.

Frankie’s style is warm and compassionate. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps rather than labels. She aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person’s needs, using your feedback to guide the work.

Therapeutic tools draw from cognitive-behavioral ideas, attachment-focused thinking, emotionally-focused work, and mindfulness practices. These are used to help people notice thought patterns, change unhelpful habits, and repair important relationships.

Frankie is licensed as an LPCC and as an LMHC and practices from Florida. She offers a supportive space for people ready to make changes and build more manageable daily routines. If someone is taking the first step toward a different life, she frames the work as a collaborative effort to find what helps.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Frankie uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. CBT often focuses on small experiments and concrete practice to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or improve daily routines.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. This work helps people understand emotional needs, improve communication, and repair important relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Frankie will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts plans as progress is made.

Her profile lists video, phone call, and text message sessions. Confirm the current session formats before booking so they match your schedule. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a phone call can be a shorter check-in, video allows face-to-face conversation, and text messaging can support brief between-session check-ins. These options can help people maintain momentum and apply new habits in daily life.
