Great to meet you!

Vincent Franco is an experienced Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and clinical therapist. With six years of professional experience, Vincent has developed a strong background in treating various mental health conditions such as complex post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, ADD, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and more. Vincent completed his Masters Degree in Social Work from Stony Brook University.

My approach to therapy

One of the primary therapeutic modalities Vincent employs is Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). Vincent integrates mindfulness based practices to assist individuals in improving symptoms.

Vincent specializes in somatic experiencing, an approach that emphasizes the connection between the mind and body in trauma healing. This modality addresses the physiological aspects of trauma, through a process of releasing and regulating unresolved tension, helping to restore a sense of safety.

What you can expect from me

Vincent prioritizes establishing a space where individuals feel secure, validated, and respected. He enables clients to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences openly, leading to more meaningful therapeutic outcomes. Vincent actively involves his clients in setting goals, allowing them to have ownership in their therapeutic journey. Client goals may encompass areas such as symptom reduction, improving coping skills, enhancing relationships, or personal growth.
