Lesbian Therapists in Gadsden County, FL

You find yourself constantly avoiding triggers, unable to go certain places or do things that remind you of your unresolved hurt - a lost relationship, childhood abandonment, the death of someone you love dearly. You feel limited and held back by your painful past. You get sucked into self help videos on Tik-Tok looking for a solution and find yourself more sad, more alone, and feeling empty after hours of scrolling. Together we can face the past head on. I guide clients to work through past hurt and do the work to heal. My clients finish therapy confident, emotionally healthy, and free to move forward into a hopeful future.

Do you sometimes feel like you are drowning in your emotions? Does anger, sadness, and fear keep impacting your life in ways you don't want it to? Do you struggle with thoughts of self-harm, of not being good enough, or feeling like you are empty inside? Do you struggle with feelings of extreme anger and do you sometimes "erupt"? Or does your child struggle with intense "temper tantrums", self-harming behavior, or suicidal behaviors? Or does your loved one struggle with these things and it's negatively impacted YOUR life and you just don't know how to cope anymore?

Life comes with challenges and changes that can be complex to navigate. My passion is empowering clients to navigate these challenges through warm, empathetic care in a safe environment. By working alongside clients and viewing them holistically, I believe it is possible to help them enact real change and personal growth.

Are you a woman, committed to your healing and self-growth journey, who shows up "put together" and is constantly there for others (maybe to the point of feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or even angry)?

Have you tried therapy or other healing styles, YET, continue to experience sadness, anxiety, difficult/unsustainable relationships, disappointment, frustration with yourself, doubt, insecurity, and uncertainty about what to do to get out of unhealthy cycles present in your life?

Hey, life can be tough. Some events are out of our control and sometimes we tend to get in our own way. Often negative events in our childhood shape our adult responses leading to anxiety, depression, avoidance, and panic. Whatever the experience you’re here because you’re ready to overcome it. As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating.

Offering secure, confidential and convenient Teletherapy throughout the state of Florida! My name is Rebecca Frye, LCSW. Thanks for checking out my profile. I know that finding a good therapeutic "fit" isn't always easy. The first goal of my practice is to create a welcoming space where you can share openly. My practice is focused on listening to your goals, offering encouragement, and cultivating compassion towards yourself and others. I utilize a diverse approach that draws from several therapeutic traditions including: cognitive psychology, internal family systems and mindfulness based stress reduction and meditation.

I believe in meeting people where they are at. Some clients come to me with a clear idea of their goals for therapy while others don’t know where to start. There are situations in life that are difficult to navigate alone and I believe that providing a safe space to work through the challenges life throws at us is crucial.
