About Michele
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 23 years of experience, Dr. Michele Frey focuses on addictions, family concerns, grief, depression, and coping with life changes. She sees people who need help managing loss, mood shifts, or the fallout from substance use. Sessions are described in straightforward terms and aim to address immediate problems as well as longer-term patterns.
Dr. Frey talks through what is happening now and what has led up to it. She works with clients on practical steps to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Conversations often include looking at relationships, routines, and coping strategies that can be used between sessions.
Her approach is attentive to aging and geriatric issues, multicultural concerns, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination. She also addresses personality disorder concerns and sexual assault and abuse when they affect a person's mood, behavior, or relationships. The focus is on clear goals and visible steps rather than abstract theory.
Dr. Frey adapts discussions to each person's needs while keeping an emphasis on respectful, sensitive interaction. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques where appropriate and reviews options with clients to decide what to try first. Progress is checked regularly and plans are adjusted as needed.
People who want to start are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Language of service is English and international clients are not accepted.

Therapeutic approaches and how online work is arranged
Dr. Frey uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques aimed at solving current problems and reducing symptoms. One common approach is behavioral work that focuses on changing habits and routines to reduce harmful behaviors and improve daily functioning. This can be helpful for addictions, depression, and managing grief reactions.Another approach is problem-focused counseling that clarifies immediate goals, breaks them into small steps, and monitors progress. That method is often used when someone needs concrete strategies for coping with life changes or family conflict. Both approaches are practical and oriented toward observable change rather than lengthy theory discussion.
Choosing the right method is part of the work. Dr. Frey will discuss options and help decide what fits best given a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is made together and can be adjusted as progress is tracked.
