Living well is an extremely difficult affair. Whether a hard relationship, a traumatic event, or a rough season of life that makes little sense - there is hope. As a lover of stories, I have found that the most potent ones often lie buried beneath layers of pain, guilt, and shame, where they subconsciously influence the way we think, feel, and connect with others. The process of healing can only begin as we tell the very stories that bring us pain and choose to love the parts of ourselves that may seem most frightening. Whatever you're facing, I know having a safe space to better understand your world will make it more manageable.
I provide research-based quality care that is tailored to every individual and couple based on their presenting concerns. I believe that empathetic presence within a non-judgmental relationship is what makes therapy so powerful. By employing Existential-Humanistic, ACT, and IFS techniques, I strive to promote wellness in mind, body, and spirit.
For much of the past decade, I have been privileged to walk alongside dying marriages, widowed mothers, burnt-out students, incarcerated persons, and many others as they recover a sense of wholeness and meaning. I welcome all concerns and look forward to getting to meet you. Tough times may be inevitable but that doesn't mean you have to face them alone.

I've done therapy in the past where you don't go anywhere until the 3rd or 4th session but dr Franklin understands quickly where i'm getting at and challenges my views with the proper questions. Really helpful and considerate.
