“The world is changing at a rate faster than our ability to adapt to that change.” – Astro Teller
If this is true, no wonder you’re frustrated, exhausted, getting stuck in numbing and escaping behaviors, and wondering if this is all there is to modern life. The demands of life (relationships, marriage, parenting, career, personal health, mental health) are more than you can handle and you often are just trying to make it to the end of the day.
I specialize in working with men and helping them get relief from everyday demands, so they can go deep in their most important relationships.

Life is full of storms. The ebbs and flows they bring can leave anyone feeling shipwrecked. My role as a counselor is a grounding one: to equip and enable you to find light through the darkness. I work with men and women that have experienced depressions, anger, or past hurts that are causing their futures to look bleak.

Our world is undeniably gendered, and there are unique challenges, special strengths, and certain spoken and unspoken expectations that come with navigating the male experience. I create a therapeutic space that is conversational, non-judgmental, connective, and supportive to help you process, understand, and cope with your personal challenges. I particularly enjoy working with men who are looking to use their analytical strengths to expand their skill set in the realm of emotional awareness.

Hi, I’m passionate about creating spaces where men feel heard and seen. In a society that looks down on mental health care, especially for men, my job is to break down those barriers.
I am especially passionate about de-stigmatizing mental health for men by challenging the idea that vulnerability is weakness. Instead, I view emotional honesty and embodied awareness as sources of resilience and strength.
My approach is warm, compassionate, collaborative, and humorous. I teach skills for emotional regulation. I also use body techniques to release stored trauma, as well as help you befriend your inner critic.
If any of this resonates with you, I invite you to reach out for a free, 15 min consultation!

I am Micheal Franklin with Franklin and Kiai Counseling Services, PLLC where we believe that nobody is left behind and we want our clients to become everything that are capable of becoming. I believe that since we were all children at once that we’re a product of the environment in which we were raised. Many times the things that we’re having difficulty facing is related to our childhood and I would like to have the opportunity to help you overcome those obstacles in your life so you can freely move forward and find happiness within yourself.

You’re used to being in control, but when it comes to your emotions, it feels like they control you. Maybe the anxiety or hurt from past experiences keeps you on edge, or your relationship is strained because of anger, withdrawal, or difficulty expressing yourself.
I help men navigate relationship challenges, emotional barriers, and past trauma. Through the use of various trauma-informed techniques I help you gain control over your emotions and reactions. My approach is direct but supportive, helping you address the root causes of your mental health struggles and equip you with tools to manage stress and triggers.

My professional experience includes being an embedded psychologist in a U.S. Special Ops squadron on Europe and Power 5 Conference NCAA university athletic departments. I have learned that most men benefit from cognitive processing and cognitive-behavioural approaches, with a touch of humanism. I have experience working with men who are confronting relationship issues, post-traumatic stress, anxiety, and depression.

I work with clients who may be struggling with generalized anxiety, perfectionism, a loss of self, and low self-confidence. My “good fit” client may have experienced attachment trauma, struggle in relationships (familial, romantic, and platonic), and identify as highly sensitive.

My approach to therapy has its foundation in strengths-based interventions that create emotional safety and facilitate insight and transformation. I draw from a variety of orientations, including client-centered, solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, positive psychology, mindfulness, and body-based therapies, such as Trauma Sensitive Yoga. I take an ecological approach to therapy, considering each person’s unique history, experiences, and communities.

The most common phrase I hear from clients is “not good enough.” Many of us come to believe that we are unworthy of acceptance, so we conceal aspects of our identities that others might view as unacceptable and present a fragmented version of ourselves to others. My task as a therapist is to create a safe environment in which you can be your whole self, without fear of judgment. I am committed not only to understanding and validating you, but also to helping you learn how to understand and validate yourself. I am a licensed psychologist providing virtual therapy to adult clients, and my specialties include men’s issues, LGBTQIA+ concerns, early childhood trauma, shame, anger, depression, anxiety, and occupational concerns.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and practical skill-building. I use evidence-based techniques, particularly from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to help clients understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while developing healthier ways to cope with stress, anxiety, and life challenges.
I strive to create a supportive space where clients – especially minority men – can openly explore their experiences, build emotional awareness, and work toward meaningful change.

You’ve likely done a lot of things “right”. From career to relationships, even past therapy – but does something feel off? Maybe you might feel disconnected, burned out, or like you’re performing a role rather than living your life. I specialize in working with men like you who are striving to reconcile their past, find meaning in their present, and create a more fulfilling future. Whether you’re dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, perfectionism, life transitions, or substance issues, therapy can be a powerful space to get out of your head and reconnect with yourself.
