About Carolyn

Dr. Carolyn Frye helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting struggles, and other life shifts. She introduces straightforward steps parents can try.

Her style is direct and practical, aimed at reducing symptoms and improving daily functioning. Dr. Frye holds the Licensed Professional Counselor credential and works with clients in Georgia.

Her approach uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. She combines that with clear problem-solving to address things like anger, addiction, low self-esteem, grief, and bipolar mood challenges.

Background and approach

She also focuses on codependency and issues common in young adults. Dr. Frye has 17 years of clinical experience.

She draws on years of counseling work to suggest strategies that fit each person’s routine and priorities. Sessions typically focus on practical skills that people can use between meetings. Conversations begin with the client telling their story.

Together they set goals and pick interventions that feel realistic. The therapist reviews progress and adjusts plans when needed. Therapy comes in different formats to fit a busy life, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging.

Dr. Frye helps clients find approaches and session styles that match their needs and schedules. Her practice centers on helping people build coping skills and clearer habits.

Parents looking for guidance around family and parenting topics can expect practical suggestions and step-by-step support.

CBT and online support for everyday challenges

Dr. Frye uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT sessions typically include identifying problematic thoughts, practicing new responses, and building small, achievable steps to change daily habits. This approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress, anger, and difficulties with coping and parenting.

She focuses on practical problem-solving and skill building in online sessions. Finding the right approach is part of the work together - the therapist and client review what helps, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on the client’s needs and goals. The process is collaborative and paced to what each person can manage.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make therapy more flexible for busy schedules, allow for shorter check-ins when useful, and let clients continue work between appointments. Using varied formats helps people keep momentum and apply skills where they live and parent.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
