About me
Hello! My name is Frankie and I am a licensed mental health counselor currently living in the sunshine state of Florida. I completed my graduate school internship as well as post graduate registered intern experience at an inpatient stabilization center and I’m currently still employed there today as an LMHC. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parent-child relationship problems, self-harm, personality disorders, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse and have worked closely alongside the Department of Children and Families, as well as Children’s Protective Services.
My therapy style is warm and compassionate, and I believe my clients should have someone who listens to their concerns wholeheartedly with an open mind. I believe in treating everyone with genuine respect and sensitivity, and I don't believe we should label or stigmatize ourselves based on our struggles. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and solution-focused therapy. I will tailor our conversations and create a treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs, with your input along the way.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Ms. Ter Keurst knows the importance of balancing the tuff stuff with happy experiences and memories. She always has me leave a session on a positive note. I greatly appreciate it. I've been in therapy before, and my therapist would often end a session on a painful note - I'd leave the session in tears. Not helpful!

Frankie is amazing! She is very kind and sweet. After just one session, I felt relief. Frankie will make you feel seen and heard and it is so comforting! I love that she agrees that situations are tough but helps create goals so that when a tough situation comes around again, you can be better prepared. I already see a difference in myself and I have only have 4 to 5 sessions. Amazinggggg. Thank you Frankie <3

Frankie is a really kind hearted person and listens to me complain without judgment. She comes up with good goals for me and I feel better after taking with her. I would recommend her.

She was a great listener! She makes you feel completely comfortable and easy to open up to right from the beginning. She always responded in a timely manner. Unfortunately due to my circumstances, I'm not able to continue currently. Once I'm able to get settled I will seek her out again! She was wonderful! Thank you Frankie!!!
