About Solveig
Solveig Frivold is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. She also supports those coping with mood disorders, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and major life changes. Sessions are offered in English and she works with clients in Washington and internationally.
Solveig uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy along with attachment-based and client-centered approaches.
Background and approach
She often integrates trauma-focused methods and EMDR when it fits a person's needs. In sessions she listens first, clarifies what matters to each person, and then works with them to try new ways of responding to hard emotions and old patterns. Her style is straightforward and warm.
Conversations focus on what is happening now and how feelings link to relationships and personal history. She helps people name painful emotions, understand attachment patterns, and practice small changes that can ease anxiety and improve connection with others. Over six years of clinical work inform her practice.
She has experience helping people with cross-cultural concerns and complex life transitions. That background shapes how she notices cultural context and the stresses it can bring. Therapy sessions may include talking, building skills, and processing past hurts.
The aim is practical relief and clearer choices day to day. Getting started begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial session.

Online support
How Emotion-Focused and Attachment Work Online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on how emotions shape relationships and personal patterns. In plain terms, EFT helps people notice the feelings that drive reactions, name them, and try new, more helpful ways of connecting with others. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current relationships and coping. It helps people understand recurring patterns of closeness and distance and learn different ways to feel safer in relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which methods to use based on current problems, personal goals, and what feels comfortable. That collaborative process may include trying emotion-focused exercises, exploring attachment history, or adding trauma-focused tools when needed.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls are useful for deeper conversations and noticing interaction patterns. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a busy day. Live chat and text messaging let clients share thoughts between sessions and get flexible support on a more frequent basis. These options make therapy more accessible and easier to fit into daily life.
