About Frania
Frania Sortillon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Arizona. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or life changes. Frania aims to create a calm, compassionate space where clients can learn new skills and regain a sense of direction.
She draws on a Christian-informed perspective to offer support that respects personal beliefs and values. In sessions she helps people build self-compassion, work through trauma and abuse, and repair problems with communication.
How Frania works
Frania also addresses feelings of isolation, social anxiety, and low self-esteem. Her style is practical and collaborative. She and the client set goals together and try concrete steps between meetings.
Frania teaches skills for managing strong emotions and for improving how people relate to others. Over six years of practice, she has supported people through major life transitions and the slow work of healing emotional wounds. She focuses on building resilience and encouraging self-love as ongoing habits rather than quick fixes.
People who come to her can expect a steady, respectful guide who listens and offers clear next steps. Sessions mix conversation, practical tools, and real-world strategies to help clients feel more capable and connected.

Approaches and online therapy options
Frania uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and emotional healing. One common approach she uses emphasizes building self-compassion and self-love through guided exercises and reflective conversation; this helps with shame, low self-esteem, and persistent negative self-talk. Another approach centers on coping strategies for anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding, and behavior-based steps to manage symptoms in daily life; these tools are useful for social anxiety, panic, and ongoing worry.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client talk about goals, try methods, and adjust what they do together based on what helps most. Frania treats the work as a partnership and checks in regularly to make sure techniques fit the client's needs and preferences.
Online sessions are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit brief support into a busy day and to follow up between sessions. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to keep therapy consistent with everyday life.
