Hi there, I'm Franklin!
I am an LMFT with over thirty years of experience. I understand that learned behavior results in patterns that can either be positive and life-affirming or maladaptive and negatively impact our self-esteem, happiness, and relationships. I help clients unravel where destructive life patterns come from and empower them to have a more fulfilling life.
My focus
I work with all age groups, with a special interest in young adults, adolescents, and their families. Areas of focus include depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, communication, trauma, attachment issues, grief and loss, and relationship conflicts.
My approach
I utilize an eclectic strength-based approach incorporating short-term psychodynamic, CBT, humanistic, and family systems theory. My approach focuses on helping clients understand how they defend against painful memories associated with trauma, unresolved grief and loss, abandonment, and other current or past stressors.
