Getting to know Roderick Frith
My name is R. Murray Frith, Ph.D. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has enjoyed working primarily with kids of all ages and their families for about 8 years. Previously, I worked as a social worker with foster kids and their foster families for about 10 years. Over the years, I have received much positive feedback from supervisors, colleagues, kids, and their family members, which I have found very rewarding. I come from a spiritual approach, welcoming people of all beliefs, while personally believing in a beautiful afterlife that awaits us once we complete the challenges we face here on earth.
My approach
I focus primarily on practical solutions that I help my clients develop to confront and work through their challenges. I have extensive experience with most types of children’s disorders, including trauma. I commonly use TF-CBT, Somatic Experiencing, CBT, and empathetic listening.
My focus
I typically work with kids of all ages, including various family members who are essential to the process of improvement. I am most comfortable helping those who have experienced trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, behavioral issues, anger, autism, self-esteem issues, and communication problems.
My communication style
I offer a very open, welcoming vibe, with a calm, non-threatening voice. People find it easy to build rapport with me and often open up quickly.
My journey to therapy
I believe it was just in my DNA. I really appreciated the help I received when I first talked with a therapist at age 16 and felt inspired to do that work myself.
My goals for you
I let clients know that their goals are up to them, and I help clarify and make them realistic, typically starting with two or three goals to work on over each 3-6 month period.
