About Jeffrey

Jeffrey "Jeff" Frommeyer is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 24 years of professional experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship questions, grief, parenting concerns, and coping with life changes, and he notes experience with blended family issues.

He keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on immediate problems and concrete steps a person can try between meetings. Jeff can include faith-based perspectives when requested and will respect a client's values in planning care.

Jeff uses several established approaches. He draws on client-centered work to follow what a person wants to talk about. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and try alternative behaviors. Mindfulness and elements of dialectical behavior therapy provide skills for managing strong emotions.

Across 24 years he has worked with people facing loss, chronic illness, caregiving strain, attachment concerns, body image issues, and complex life transitions such as adoption, foster care, or aging-related changes. He also lists experience with more challenging personality patterns like avoidant or antisocial traits and with codependency and commitment questions.

Sessions aim to be practical and respectful. Jeff and the client set goals, try strategies in everyday life, and review what works. People considering a faith-informed option can mention that when they begin.

How his approaches translate to online work

Jeff often uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques in sessions. Client-centered work means the conversation follows a person's concerns and priorities, which helps when adjusting to a new household or changing parenting roles. Cognitive behavioral work focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors, which can help with anxiety, communication problems, and daily routines.

He also incorporates elements of dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Those skills can be useful when tensions rise in blended households or during difficult conversations with a co-parent. Choosing an approach is collaborative; Jeff will talk with each person about goals, what has helped before, and which methods feel most acceptable.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking so you know how meetings are delivered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. The focus is on practical work you can try between meetings and adjusting methods to fit everyday life rather than promising any specific outcome.
