About Jean

Dr. Jean Frank welcomes people seeking focused support with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, ADHD, trauma, and other life challenges.

Background and approach

With two decades of clinical experience, she centers therapy on practical coping skills and clearer problem solving while tailoring methods to each person’s needs. Her approach emphasizes collaboration so clients can identify goals and take gradual steps toward change.

Dr. Frank is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (FL LMHC MH10305) who has worked across independent practice, corrections, schools, hospitals, and community mental health settings.

She draws from a mix of evidence-informed approaches including cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, EMDR, DBT skills, ACT, and attachment-based ideas to address issues such as grief, addiction, depression, chronic stress, and life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and Portuguese and designed to be empathic, nonjudgmental, and focused on practical outcomes.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and commit to actions that align with what matters most, while teaching strategies to accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than struggle against them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through structured exercises and practical skill building, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an approach used to process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional impact through guided processing techniques.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to assess problems, preferences, and goals, then tailors a blend of methods to suit the individual's needs. Over time the plan can change as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or maintain continuity during life transitions. These different formats allow for real-time conversation, brief check-ins, and written reflection, so people can choose the modes that best support their pace and communication style.
