About Franklyn …

My goal as a therapist is to support you in reconnecting with your natural capacity for healing, growth, and emotional well-being. I believe therapy begins with trust, and I work to create a space where you can feel safe, supported, and genuinely heard.

I work with adults and adolescents navigating life transitions, relationship or social challenges, anxiety, depression, men’s issues, and the impact of past trauma. My trauma-informed, culturally humble therapy approach draws from Psychodynamic, Humanistic, ACT, and mindfulness-based therapies, as well as my lived experience with neurodiversity and anxiety. Depending on your needs and goals, sessions may include exploring how past experiences shape the present, building awareness of self-limiting patterns, and enhancing positive coping skills.

I approach my work with humility, curiosity, and respect for you as an individual with your own unique story. I value collaboration and aim to provide therapy that respects your background, values, and lived experience. My hope is that our work together helps you deepen self-understanding, enhance resilience, and move toward a more grounded and fulfilling life.

I’ve lived in San Francisco for nearly a decade. Prior to joining SFCC, I completed my clinical internship with the Community Youth Center of San Francisco, where I provided psychosocial assessment, diagnosis, and psychotherapy services to students at Mission High School. While studying towards my masters, I volunteered extensively at SF General KoHospital’s Children’s Health Center providing social needs screenings and resource navigation services to patients and their families. Before pursuing a career as a therapist, I worked in strategy consulting and product marketing within the tech and finance industries. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and our dog, playing guitar, cycling, watching basketball, and playing video games.
