About Frankie
Frankie McKelvin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, and anger. Frankie uses straightforward, practical methods and asks clients to be active participants in the work.
Frankie prefers a collaborative process. She sets clear goals with each person and assigns simple tasks between sessions, such as journaling or reflecting on specific topics.
Background and approach
These tasks are meant to build skills people can use day to day. Her approach blends talking and action. Frankie draws on client-centered listening to understand what matters most to a person.
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses narrative and solution-focused ideas to help people reframe problems and find workable steps forward. Frankie has helped people from culturally diverse backgrounds and supports individuals across sexual orientations and gender identities.
She also works with concerns tied to adoption and foster care, attachment and blended family issues, body image, caregiver stress, and challenges around intimacy and commitment. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. People who want to try therapy begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling sessions that fit their calendar.
Her practice asks for active effort in and between sessions, and she will recommend approaches she believes match each person’s goals and situation.

Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life
Frankie commonly uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy in her online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s perspective so goals and pacing come from the client. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Frankie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has worked in the past, then recommend techniques to try. She treats the plan as a collaboration and adjusts methods as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues during deeper conversations, phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth, live chat works for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing, brief contact between appointments. These options help people keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, or other commitments.
