Frank Centonze

Frank Centonze is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, and mood concerns. He creates a steady, calm space to talk through difficult feelings and to find practical ways forward.

He uses an approach that centers on clear communication and real-life skills. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelming emotions and improve daily functioning. People work on understanding patterns like codependency, control issues, and attachment wounds so they can make changes that last.

Frank draws on therapies such as acceptance and commitment work, cognitive behavioral tools, and attachment-based strategies. He also incorporates techniques from dialectical behavior approaches and client-centered care when they fit the person’s needs. The goal is always useful, manageable steps rather than jargon or long lists of tasks.

With 15 years of experience, he has supported people through trauma, substance concerns, bipolar and depressive episodes, and major life transitions. He pays special attention to caregiver stress, first responder issues, fatherhood concerns, and family of origin patterns.

Frank invites people to partner on clear goals, whether that means building coping skills, repairing communication, or moving through grief. To begin, prospective clients use the site Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It emphasizes what matters to the person and small actions that move them toward those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings connect and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. Both approaches help with anxiety, depression, stress, and coping during life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals and preferences. That decision can shift over time as needs change and progress is reviewed together.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing meetings during breaks or between other responsibilities. It can also let people use shorter check-ins when needed, or choose options that require less bandwidth on slower connections. Licensed professionals tailor sessions to what a person can manage and what helps them keep making steady progress.
