Using a holistic approach, Frankie creates a space where her clients feel empowered to bring their whole selves into the therapeutic space, without fear of being judged or pathologized. She specializes in treating OCD and anxiety, and is experienced in working with clients experiencing complex trauma, body image issues, sex & intimacy challenges, and life transitions. 

In her work with both individuals and couples, she uses an attachment approach to support clients in building an awareness of how their past relationships shape their present ones. With this awareness, clients are able to strengthen their relationships and build secure attachments.

Her therapeutic approach is tailored to the unique experience of the client, using elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention, and other evidence-based approaches.
