Dr. Michele Frey

Dr. Michele Frey helps people facing addictions, grief, depression, and major life changes. She also supports those coping with family conflict, parenting pressures, and issues related to aging and geriatric care. Her first aim is to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

She brings 23 years of professional experience as a licensed professional counselor, LPC, practicing in Georgia. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. Michele adapts conversations and plans to each person's situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

In the room she listens first and asks concrete questions to understand daily routines and pressures. Together she and the client identify coping skills, problem-solving steps, and small changes that can make routines easier. When needed, she addresses how discrimination, multicultural stress, or past sexual trauma affect relationships and mood.

Michele emphasizes support and empowerment. She acknowledges that starting therapy takes courage and works to create a steady, respectful process. Her work pays attention to how personality patterns and life-stage concerns shape current struggles.

People seeking help can expect direct conversation about what is getting in the way of feeling better. Treatment plans are practical, tailored, and adjusted as progress is made. The goal is to help people move toward a more manageable, fulfilling everyday life.

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Dr. Frey uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful habits and building practical coping skills for day-to-day stressors and mood challenges; this helps with depression, addictive behaviors, and life transitions. Another approach centers on addressing the impact of past hurt and discrimination on current relationships and self-view, working to reduce the ways those experiences influence reactions and choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She treats therapy as a collaborative process and will help figure out which techniques best match a client's goals, needs, and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on how a person responds.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Those practical benefits often help people keep therapy consistent as they work through life changes.
