About Frank
Frank Centonze is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 15 years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, grief, anger, self-esteem struggles, and life changes.
Frank focuses on communication problems, attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, codependency, and family of origin concerns. He also addresses substance use and first responder issues. Frank helps clients name difficult feelings and find clearer ways to act on them.
In sessions he uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. He combines talking, practical skills, and emotion-focused work so people can notice patterns and try different responses.
His work includes practical strategies for coping, managing mood swings, and reducing compulsive behaviors. He supports people as they practice communication, set boundaries, and handle separation or divorce related stresses. Frank encourages small changes that build over time.
To begin, he asks people to describe their current concerns and goals. That helps him suggest approaches and plan the first steps. Sessions are aimed at steady progress rather than quick fixes.
How his approaches translate to online work
Frank uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and work with strong emotions and interaction patterns. EFT is often used when emotions are hard to name and relationship or attachment concerns are part of the problem. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and focuses on values-based action to cope with stress and mood challenges.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Frank will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then suggest which methods to try first. That collaborative decision can be reviewed and adjusted as progress is made.

Many clients appreciate online work because it can fit into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and make it easier to keep regular appointments. Online sessions can also be shorter check-ins when life is hectic or full-length sessions when deeper work is needed.
