About Freddie

Freddie Wilson is a licensed social worker based in Georgia with 30 years of professional experience working with people facing relationship and intimacy challenges, depression, bipolar disorder, addiction, trauma and abuse, and issues related to self-esteem, career, and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

He emphasizes building an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore difficult feelings and thoughts and work toward clearer goals. Freddie encourages clients to take that first courageous step toward greater fulfillment and offers steady support throughout the process.

His practice integrates practical, skills-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and relationship-focused work informed by the Gottman Method. Freddie draws on three decades of clinical work to tailor interventions to each person's situation, whether concerns involve sleep and eating, ADHD, compassion fatigue, or complex overlapping problems like co-morbidity and codependency.

He also brings focus to areas such as adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric needs, immigration-related stress, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and other life transitions. Freddie holds LCSW and CSW credentials (GA LCSW CSW001873) and provides care in English to clients in Georgia.

Online approaches for relationships and personal change

Freddie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, teaching practical skills for managing mood, anxiety, sleep, and daily functioning. The Gottman Method is applied for couples or relationship-focused work to strengthen communication, reduce conflict patterns, and rebuild trust using research-informed exercises.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Freddie works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals and then tailors strategies that fit each person’s situation. He helps clients try different tools and adjusts the plan over time so the therapy remains relevant and useful.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for scheduling and make it easier to access care from home or work. These formats allow ongoing skill practice, check-ins between sessions, and consistent support while accommodating different comfort levels and life demands.
