01About Frania
Frania Sortillon is a licensed professional counselor in Arizona who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the aftermath of trauma and abuse. She emphasizes practical steps people can use right away. Her style aims to build self-compassion and clearer communication so daily life feels more manageable.
She brings a Christian-informed perspective to sessions for clients who find that helpful. That perspective shapes the tone of the work but does not prescribe a single path for everyone.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on real problems like social anxiety, isolation, shame, and difficulty finding life purpose. In sessions she helps clients sort out what matters most and try small, doable changes. That can mean learning to speak up more clearly, practicing self-care, or replacing harsh self-talk with kinder language.
The aim is to leave each session with a clear next step to practice between meetings. Frania draws on six years of clinical experience as an LPC and uses evidence-based techniques to guide progress. She works collaboratively and adjusts the pace to match each person's needs.
Many people come for help moving through transitions, repairing how they relate to others, or healing from past wounds. Her approach is warm and goal-minded. She helps people find more self-love, reduce overwhelm, and regain a sense of direction.
Frania explains options clearly and helps clients choose strategies that fit their lives.

04Online support
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Frania uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on anxiety, depression, trauma, and self-esteem. One common approach is skills-based therapy that teaches practical tools for managing anxiety and stress, such as breathing or behavioral strategies to reduce overwhelm. This helps people get relief they can use between sessions.Another approach focuses on building self-compassion and addressing shame and guilt. That work involves gentle exercises to change harsh self-talk and small behavioral experiments to build a kinder inner stance and improve relationships with others.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will discuss needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit the person's life. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helping.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video can mirror an in-person conversation, phone calls need less bandwidth, and chat or messaging can fit into short breaks or quieter moments. These formats make it easier to keep regular appointments and work on change without long commutes.
