About Jean

Dr. Jean Frank is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with 20 years of practice. She works with adults struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, grief, and parenting strain. She also addresses concerns like ADHD, eating and body-image issues, anger, and low self-esteem.

Her sessions are straightforward and practical. She helps people build coping skills, manage intense emotions, and find clearer ways to handle relationship and life changes. She offers guidance without pushing any religious or political view, focusing instead on each person's goals.

Dr. Frank blends several approaches to meet different needs. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take workable steps toward them. She also uses Attachment-Based ideas when relationship patterns and early connections are central to the concern.

Her background includes work in private practice, corrections, schools, hospitals, and mental health centers. That variety shaped a practical, problem-solving style and comfort with crises and complex cases. She speaks English and Portuguese and provides services to people living in Florida.

Sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Cost varies by location and therapist subscription options; sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches that guide online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify what matters, and take small steps toward those values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going, then teaching practical tools to change them for issues like depression, anxiety, and addiction. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and helps people reshape how they connect and communicate in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Frank will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, symptoms, and preferences. That plan can be adjusted as progress is made so treatment stays relevant and useful.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different needs. Video calls allow fuller conversation and nonverbal cues, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier on the go. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when typing out thoughts helps. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact and keep momentum between sessions.
