About Fritz Gelin
Over more than 15 years in the field, he has supported individuals presenting with conditions such as bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. Fritz emphasizes a person-centered stance in his work, creating space for each individual to speak and to consider options for solving problems rather than following a one-size-fits-all prescription. He is also certified in cognitive behavioral therapy - a goal-oriented approach that looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors - and he blends CBT with other models to match each person’s needs.
Fritz frames therapy as a collaborative process in which the client’s voice guides the direction of care. He draws on his crisis work and addictions training when situations call for specialized knowledge, while using an eclectic toolbox to tailor interventions to the presenting issue. If someone is preparing to begin counseling, Fritz aims to offer guidance and practical support to help them navigate difficult tasks and life transitions.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?
Online therapy can be an effective option for many common concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and navigating life changes. For those issues, remote sessions can offer outcomes comparable to traditional in-person work while allowing people to access care from their own environments.One major benefit is scheduling flexibility - people can choose the format that fits their routine and comfort level, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety makes it easier to maintain consistency and to continue therapy through transitions or busy periods.
Licensed professionals provide the therapeutic support, and if the fit is not right it is possible to switch to a different therapist. For individuals weighing whether online therapy is appropriate, considering personal preferences for communication, the nature of the concerns, and practical needs can help determine whether remote work is a suitable way to pursue care.
