You may be carrying pain that's hard to put into words. Perhaps it's the echo of past trauma, the fog of anxiety or depression, or the quiet ache of grief that doesn't seem to shift. Maybe you've spent years trying to hold everything together, all while feeling like you're falling apart inside. You're tired—of the overthinking, the emotional numbness, the disconnect in your relationships, the constant inner critic. You long for relief, but more than that, you want clarity, self-compassion, and a sense of wholeness. That's where we begin.
Frank is a psychotherapist and counsellor who works with people navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and the weight of life's harder chapters. He draws on a range of approaches — including EMDR, somatic and emotion-focused therapies — tailored to each person's needs and pace.
In addition to private practice, Frank has worked as a psychotherapist at a walk-in centre in Darlinghurst and as a crisis counsellor for Lifeline. He is also an associate lecturer in the psychotherapy and counselling masters program at Western Sydney University.
