About Sue
Sue Frazier-Bear is an experienced Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, relationship and parenting concerns, and related life transitions.
Background and approach
She frames therapeutic work around dignity and respect, drawing on two decades of clinical practice and experience supervising trainees to support steady progress and practical coping skills. Her approach blends psychodynamic thinking with mindfulness and compassion-focused practices to help clients explore patterns, process past experiences, and build present-moment skills.
Techniques such as guided relaxation, breathing exercises, and other stress-reduction practices are woven into sessions alongside deeper exploratory work about family of origin, attachment wounds, and identity. Sue’s experience also includes collaboration with psychiatrists and other mental health professionals, and she emphasizes individualized care tailored to each person’s goals.
Located in Tennessee, she offers a thoughtful, affirming therapeutic stance for people seeking to address emotional pain, improve communication, or find meaning during change. Her background in training and supervision informs a reflective, skillful style that balances insight-oriented exploration with practical strategies for coping and growth.
Integrating Insightful Approaches into Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and build actions that align with those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and life changes where moving toward valued goals matters more than eliminating unwanted internal experiences.Mindfulness-based therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness through practices like guided relaxation and breathing exercises that reduce reactivity and enhance emotional regulation. These techniques pair well with work on grief, trauma recovery, and ongoing mood concerns by giving clients concrete skills to use between sessions.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is often collaborative; the therapist works with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Over time interventions can be adjusted so insight-oriented exploration and practical skill-building complement one another.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for people with busy schedules or geographic constraints. This range of formats makes it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice new skills in daily life, and access support from Tennessee-based clinicians without needing to travel.
