Franca White, LCSW

Providing individual and group therapy in office or online specializing in adolescents, veterans, life coaching, LGBT, addictions, grief and loss and chronic illness.

I am experienced in working with addictions, veterans, LGBT, and adolescents in diverse populations. My goal is to meet the client where they are, and I utilize CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Reality Therapy in order to reach the clients goals to create change. Most recently I worked with clients with anxiety, mental health challenges, addictions, veterans with addictions and PTSD, depression and trauma. Born and raised in New York, my passion for helping people began at an early age and has stayed with me ever since.

I served for 10 years in the Marine Corps and specialize in working with active and reserve members, veterans, and their families. While on active duty, I served as a victim advocate which is where my passion for helping adolescents, LGBT, and addictions began.

I work extremely hard to provide a safe environment for all of my clients where they can feel comfortable expressing themselves without worrying about being judged. I am direct and honest and hold my clients accountable for their choices and I give feedback that assists with a clients growth.
