Dr. Jean Frank, LMHC

Dr. Jean Frank is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida who brings a compassionate, practical approach to mental health care. She draws on experience across multiple settings - including private practice, corrections, schools, hospitals, and community mental health centers - to tailor support to each person's needs. Dr. Frank integrates a blend of therapeutic methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques to build coping skills, resolve conflicts creatively, and support change during personal crises.

Her work encompasses adjustment challenges related to major life or career transitions, crisis and loss, trauma, substance and alcohol addiction, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, and behavioral or cognitive issues linked to brain dysfunction. Dr. Frank emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental online space that orients treatment around each person's goals rather than any particular religion, belief system, or political stance. She also assists people who are unsure about therapy by helping them decide whether counseling is the right next step.

Committed to ongoing professional development, Dr. Frank recently completed level I certification as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and additional training in C-DBT, telemental health, and mindfulness. Her academic background includes a Doctor in Biology from Universidade de Brasília in Brazil, a Master of Science in Psychology from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville, and qualification as a psychologist from the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. Together these experiences inform a strengths-based, trauma-aware practice that seeks practical progress and personal growth.
