About Solveig
Solveig Frivold is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Washington who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, grief, and mood concerns like depression and bipolar. She also supports those dealing with intimacy questions, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and life transitions.
Solveig offers straightforward, calm guidance so people can feel steadier and more able to cope. Solveig uses a mix of approaches rather than one fixed method.
Background and approach
She draws on attachment-focused work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses emotionally-focused ideas to help people name and shift painful cycles in close relationships. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is part of her toolbox for processing traumatic memories when that fits the client's needs.
Sessions focus on what matters to the client. Conversations are practical and paced to match each person’s tolerance for change. Solveig listens for strengths and small changes that can make daily life easier, and she helps set achievable steps to build on those gains.
She has six years of clinical experience and has worked across cultures, which informs how she sees family of origin, multicultural, and transition-related concerns. Her background includes work with people facing post-traumatic stress, obsessive thoughts, social anxiety, and compassion fatigue. Solveig offers sessions in English and accepts international clients.
She provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches work in online therapy
Solveig uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. That approach helps when people want to understand why they repeat certain reactions in close relationships and how to form more stable connections.She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to help people and couples name the emotions that drive painful cycles. EFT-style work focuses on identifying core feelings, tracking interaction patterns, and practicing new ways of responding to one another.
EMDR is offered as an option for processing traumatic memories when it fits the client's goals and readiness. When used, EMDR is introduced carefully and combined with grounding and stabilization work so the pace suits the person.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, comfort with different methods, and practical needs, then shape the plan collaboratively. This helps make sure sessions match what the person needs now and what they hope to change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow for visual connection and longer work; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter audio check-in is preferred. Live chat and text are useful for short check-ins, keeping momentum between sessions, or when writing feels safer than speaking. These options offer flexibility so therapy can fit into busy lives.
