About Frank
Frank Centonze, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas, has 15 years of clinical experience helping people with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and mood concerns. He uses straightforward, skill-based methods and focuses on communication problems, self-esteem, grief, and coping with life changes. Sessions emphasize building practical habits and clearer ways of managing emotions and relationships.
Frank combines cognitive behavioral techniques with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice patterns and make values-based choices. He also draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches to address relational wounds and improve how people connect with others. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance need practical tools.
Work in sessions is direct and goal-oriented. Frank guides people through specific exercises, skill practice, and talk therapy to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. He pays attention to family of origin issues, abandonment, and codependency when those themes affect current relationships.
He has a long history working with substance use and co-occurring mood disorders such as bipolar and depression. First responder stress, caregiver strain, and fatherhood issues are part of his additional focus areas. Treatment may include relapse prevention, communication coaching, and emotion regulation practice.
Frank asks clients to identify concrete goals and tracks progress over time. He helps people develop routines that support better sleep, mood, and coping. Clients work on small, achievable steps and review what changes are working.
Sessions are conducted in English and follow Texas LPC practice. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

Therapeutic approaches used in online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It helps with anxiety, avoidance, and decisions that feel stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is often used for depression, anxiety, and problem-solving in daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connections and helps people build healthier ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is tracked and new needs emerge.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow more flexible check-ins during the week. They also allow focusing on skill practice and real-time problem solving in everyday settings. Discuss format and practical scheduling details when you complete the matching questionnaire and plan the first session.
