Practice Philosophy
 Dr. Frontman, a Licensed Psychologist and Certified Group Psychotherapist (CGP) has been in private practice for over 15 years. His practice focuses on treating individuals, couples, and their families using innovative, culturally sensitive clinical methods. Dr. Frontman openly discusses the the rationale for all clinical interventions with clients. Clients are encouraged to actively participate, as well as ask questions about intervention choices. His approach to psychotherapy is sensible, practical, and goal-focused. The effect of therapy is evaluated throughout the process. He works effectively in types of therapies that are completed in brief time periods, as well as more in-depth treatment, both conducted using innovative clinical methods.
His practice stays abreast and employs methodologies such that life problems are addressed in a balanced, integrated fashion. Problems are treated with special attention to the contributing sources of stress that may exacerbate phase of life challenges.
Ken Frontman's clinical work utilizes his twenty-five years of clinical experience, including 17 years at the Georgia Tech Counseling Center, over 15 years of private practice, Pre-Doctoral Internship at the Dallas Child & Family Guidance Clinic, and Post-Doctoral Fellowship at the Dallas VA Chemical Addiction Program, as well as through consistent training and staying updated in psychology research. As a System’s-Oriented therapist, his 12 years of training in System’s-Centered Therapy is utilized in many of his conceptual and clinical approaches in psychotherapy, as well as in group therapy and organization consultation. Dr. Frontman has presented at national conferences in the areas of psychotherapy and addiction recovery.
Dr. Frontman has strong ties with the mental heath community and networks with many clinicians in a variety of health professions. Whenever encountering a clinical situation that falls outside the range of his areas of expertise and competency, he works to adeptly and seamlessly facilitate a referral to an appropriate clinician or resource.
From his over 25 years of clinical practice, Dr. Frontman has come to sincerely respect the role(s) that spirituality and religion may play in individual/family life. Culturally, psychologically, and behaviorally, religion and one's spirituality may serve as a framework for guiding, organizing, and structuring important aspects of our lives. Through our religious and cultural principles and practice, we may be able find meaning and purpose, further directing our lives toward meaningful goals. Our society affords us freedom and diverse opportunities; however, our faith communities and practices may provide a framework for maintaining and building upon the values we hold dear. Dr. Frontman's practice works to support such efforts when present, whether it be from Christian, Jewish. Islamic, Hindu, or other religious orientations. We strive to ecumenically support religious practices (when it exists) with therapy.
This practice is considered a "Safe Space" affirming and supporting individuals and families of all races, cultures, religions, and sexual orientations.
