Hi, I'm Micheal Franklin, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist with a passion for helping individuals navigate the complexities of life. My ideal client is someone whose world feels chaotic, who is overwhelmed by life's challenges, or who is battling addiction. My goal is to provide a safe, judgment-free space where you can express your beliefs and work toward becoming the best version of yourself. Micheal Franklin provides Clinical Supervision for supervisee's as well in Texas and Florida.
I believe in a client-centered, collaborative approach to therapy. Using a mix of Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Trauma-Informed Therapy, I focus on addressing your current concerns and helping you understand the therapeutic methods used. My sessions are designed to support you in achieving your goals.
I understand that reaching out for help can be daunting. Having faced life's challenges myself, I know how difficult it can be to advocate for one's needs and seek understanding and support. I value you as a person and will walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and growth. I offer online sessions and a free 15-minute introductory call

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
