Frankie Fruentes is a Licensed Master Social Worker specializing in working with individuals and couples, with a particular focus on racial and gender identity, as well as the deaf/hearing impaired and LGBTQ+ communities. I am dedicated to providing a supportive and client-centered therapeutic experience and utilize various modalities, including IFS, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing to help my clients reach their therapeutic goals.
Fluent in Portuguese, Spanish, and French, I have worked extensively with the Latinx and Hispanic communities and specialize in helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD as well working with the deaf and hearing impaired population, bringing culturally competent care to an underserviced population in American Sign Language (ASL).
My main focus is to establish a client's needs and build a foundation of trust and support, enabling the therapy journey to occur at the client's own pace. I have a collaborative, client centered style, and help the client identify their short and long-term goals. My goal is to empower clients to exercise the power of choice and intention in their lives.

Groups
DBT Emotional Regulation
This DBT Emotional Regulation Skills and Process Group is a structured, skills-focused group for adults seeking support in managing intense emotions, reducing reactivity, and navigating interpersonal challenges. Grounded in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), the group combines evidence-based skills training with process-oriented discussion in a supportive and collaborative environment. Participants will learn practical coping strategies for regulating overwhelming emotions, increasing present-moment awareness, and responding more effectively to distressing thoughts, urges, and relational stressors. Weekly sessions incorporate mindfulness practices, DBT emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills, and opportunities for reflection, feedback, and real-life application.
