About Jeffrey

Jeffrey "Jeff" Frommeyer helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, parenting demands, or changes in their relationships. He writes clear, direct sessions that focus on what matters now. He aims to make the first step less daunting and to support clients as they work toward more manageable days.

Jeff is a Licensed Master Social Worker, known as LMSW, with 24 years of experience practicing in Michigan. He listens for what each person needs and shapes conversations and plans around those priorities. He can include a Christian approach in counseling when a client requests it.

In sessions he blends straightforward problem solving with attention to emotions. He uses Client-Centered work to follow a person’s lead, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing strong emotions. He also draws on mindfulness and motivational interviewing to help people find practical next steps.

Jeff has worked with people facing parenting strains, major life transitions, grief after loss, and relationship stress. He also addresses concerns such as attachment and commitment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and blended family challenges. He focuses on helping each person build skills that fit their life.

Sessions are presented in plain language and aim to be collaborative. Jeff offers respectful, sensitive, and compassionate support while helping clients set realistic goals and practice new ways of handling difficult moments.

How Jeff Uses Different Approaches Online

Jeff often draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which means the therapist follows the client’s priorities and builds conversations around what matters most to them. This approach helps when someone needs a listening space and guidance shaped by their values and pace.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a practical method that helps identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where changing patterns of thought can lead to clearer choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jeff will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels realistic. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize listening, skills training, mindfulness, or motivational strategies during sessions.

Confirm the session formats before booking, since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins after stressful events. Some formats may also let a person choose shorter sessions or phone-only conversations when that fits their day better. Jeff aims to match the structure of sessions to clients’ routines and needs rather than forcing a single way of working.
