My name is Kate Franza, and I am a licensed therapist, providing services in both California and New York. I am originally from New York, where I received my MSW degree from Fordham University. My practice is grounded in my community mental health background, with a focus on LGBTQ issues, anxiety, depression and substance use. My clients experience relationship struggles, trauma, chronic relapse, and many are interested in exploring and understanding their sexuality and gender identity. I use a harm reduction approach and I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities, including cognitive and mindfulness-based skill building.
I believe my current clients would say that I am compassionate, nonjudgmental yet direct and clear. Our work together will be solution oriented, where we figure out how to manage your present symptoms instead of only focusing on challenges from your past.
I can help you identify what is getting in the way of your wellness so that you can make positive changes, at your own pace. Don't hesitate to call or message me to see if this feels like a good match. I have other therapists in my practice that I would love to match you with! Learn about them on my website.
