About Frankie
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 26 years of clinical experience. Frankie May focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, and coping with life changes. She also gives particular attention to communication problems, forgiveness, life purpose, panic attacks, and social anxiety.
Frankie uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people name what’s happening and find steps that fit their lives. Sessions can be faith-aligned or secular depending on a client's preferences. The approach centers on building coping skills, managing strong emotions, and improving day-to-day functioning.
In sessions she helps people learn ways to reduce panic symptoms, practice social skills for anxiety, and handle grief and anger without escalation. She talks through concrete tools for stress management and problem-solving. Expect focused, goal-oriented work rather than abstract theory.
Frankie draws on long experience with common emotional struggles. She helps clients clarify values and life purpose, and work through relationship communication problems as an individual process. Her style adapts to what a person prefers while emphasizing practical changes and repeatable skills.
Practical matters are handled directly. The therapist explains options, discusses how sessions will run, and outlines steps for follow-up between meetings. People looking for clear guidance on coping, emotion regulation, or major life transitions will find a clinician who prioritizes usable tools.
Background and approach include a mix of clinical practice and real-world problem solving developed over more than two decades. The focus stays on measurable progress, manageable techniques, and helping each person move forward in concrete ways.

Approaches used and what online sessions involve
Frankie works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skill building. One common approach emphasizes breathing and grounding skills alongside gradual exposure to reduce panic symptoms and lessen the intensity of attacks. This helps people gain better control over sudden bodily symptoms.Another helpful method teaches patterns for managing social anxiety and phobic avoidance through stepwise practice and behavioral experiments. It focuses on trying small changes in real situations and reviewing what worked to build confidence and reduce avoidance.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist treats approach selection as a collaboration and will adjust methods based on a person's goals, preferences, and how they respond in early sessions. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques to try and when to change course.
