About Fred
LPC Fred Farrar is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia with 30 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, depression, addictions, and relationship concerns. He also works with communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation and loneliness, and money and financial issues.
Fred approaches therapy from several practical methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness Therapy. He frames clients as the experts on their own stories and looks for the strengths people already have. Sessions involve talking through current problems, noticing patterns, and practicing specific skills to manage mood and behavior.
He has particular experience with substance use concerns alongside mood disorders. In sessions he listens for what matters most to each person and helps set clear, step-by-step goals. Work often includes learning ways to reduce anxiety, handle strong emotions, and improve daily routines.
Fred emphasizes practical tools more than labels. Expect straightforward conversations, behavioral strategies, and mindfulness exercises you can use between meetings. He aims to help people build skills they can use in everyday life.

How Fred uses ACT, CBT and mindfulness online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and teaches practical skills to change patterns that keep symptoms going. It often helps with depression, panic, and social anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Fred collaborates with each person to see which methods fit their goals, symptoms, and daily life. That may mean trying a skill from CBT one week and a mindfulness practice the next, then deciding together which to keep using.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a workday, avoid travel time, or have shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people practice skills in the setting where problems happen and bring real-life examples directly into the session. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness to remote work to focus on clear goals and practical skills.
