Hi! I’m glad you’re here.
My name is Frankie Phipps (he/they). I’m a queer, neurodivergent mental health counselor, primarily working with teens and adults in individual and group psychotherapy in California.

My Approach
Collaborative
Therapy, to me, is a collaborative space where clients are empowered to explore, find their own path, and work towards their goals.
Affirming
Many of my clients are queer (LGBTQIA+), neurodivergent, or both! There are many great things about you that we can recognize, explore, and celebrate together. Therapy with me often includes building self-awareness, practicing validation, and challenging oneself to make desired changes at a realistic pace.
