Jeffrey "Jeff" Frommeyer, LMSW

Jeffrey "Jeff" Frommeyer is a licensed social worker in Michigan with 24 years of experience. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, and major life transitions. Jeff aims to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion as they take steps toward change.

Jeff shapes conversations and plans around what each person needs. He listens first, then offers practical strategies people can try between sessions. He is comfortable using a Christian approach to counseling when a client requests that perspective.

Over two decades in practice has exposed him to a wide range of concerns. In addition to the main focus areas, he has worked with abandonment issues, adoption and foster care questions, aging and geriatric concerns, and caregiver stress. He has also supported people facing chronic illness, body image difficulties, codependency, and communication problems.

Jeff draws on several common therapeutic methods to guide sessions. He uses client-centered work to keep the conversation focused on the client's priorities. He incorporates cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Mindfulness and dialectical behavior ideas are used to strengthen emotion regulation and present-moment awareness.

People considering Jeff will find a straightforward, respectful approach and a willingness to tailor the work to their values and goals. He encourages a collaborative process and practical steps toward a more manageable day-to-day life.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Jeff often uses client-centered methods that put the client's concerns and priorities first, asking questions and responding to what matters most to the person. This approach helps clarify goals and keeps sessions focused on practical problems that the client wants to solve.

He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT encourages small experiments and skill practice to change unhelpful thinking patterns and improve daily routines, which can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and relationship conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jeff will collaborate with each person to choose what fits best based on their goals, values, and preferences. That means trying things, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan over time.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists can also use online sessions to guide homework, practice skills in everyday settings, and maintain continuity when life changes would otherwise interrupt care.
