Andi Frye

I am a licensed social worker who is dedicated to providing compassionate and effective care to diverse populations. I challenge clients to consider new perspectives that encourage introspection and promote personal growth. It is important that I meet my clients with an outlook of empathy, curiosity, and cultural competence, while cultivating an atmosphere of advocacy, collaboration, and empowerment. I see teens and adults for individual therapy sessions virtually. My approach is eclectic and holistic. Treatment methods are personalized to the individual and involve strengths-based, trauma-informed interventions, which gravitate toward elements of positive psychology and mindfulness. I am also a huge proponent of incorporating movement and nature into therapy to enhance the connection between the mind and body and our environment. My intention is to motivate you to achieve your goals and support you in discovering and loving your authentic self.
