There you are! Hey, I'm Frank and I've been practicing for about 9yrs. In my time, i have worked with children ages 7+ in family and individual therapy focused on things like anxiety, depression, PTSD, family issues, romantic and peer relationship issues, and even career stuff. I have also applied therapy skills in other careers myself and bring a diverse but you-centered perspective on what you're going through and how we can start to untangle it all.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

The first few sessions are us getting to know each other, me trying but forgetting much of your friends and families' names, and writing down your pets' names. It might feel a bit awkward but that's totally ok and even expected! Don't sweat it, swear as much as your comfortable, and let me know what you're going through so I'm better equipped to help you through it.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strengths are I have no weaknesses. Just kidding–I like to think therapy can actually be a bit fun. You're no doubt dealing with a lot and trying to manage it all but I want you to feel comfortable coming in. I think that makes things a bit more energized resulting in a bit more focus on goals.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Thoughts and behaviors go hand-in-hand and it can be immensely beneficial to consider how each affect and react to each other.

Existential

An exploration into your unique and deeply personal worldview with all aspects of you included.

Person-centered (Rogerian)

You are the driver of change and I am here to support you while also reflecting back to you when things are open to interpretation and feedback.

Culturally Sensitive Therapy

It is important to consider all cultural aspects to be mindful of how it affects and relates to your view of the world.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Organic treatment planning to help you identify your goals, objectives, strengths, barriers, and using it as a tool to guide noticing and achieving progress in therapy.
