Getting to know Franki DeSaro

I'm Franki Desaro, an art therapist and certified spiritual director offering integrative wellness support that embraces both holistic and conventional care for your mind, body, and spirit. In my practice, I blend expressive art-based techniques with mindfulness, meditation, breathwork, yoga-informed practices, visualizations, affirmations, nature-informed wellbeing, and self-care guidance to support whole-being healing.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I work with adolescents, young adults, and older adults through many seasons of life—whether you're seeking stress relief or navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence, complex grief and loss, or life transitions. I enjoy working with individuals and couples, and I welcome family-oriented care for those seeking inner and outer balance, transformative healing and growth, self-discovery, and a deeper sense of purpose and fulfillment as your truest self.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I thoughtfully adapt my therapeutic approach for each person and couple I work with, creating a personalized care plan built around your needs, desires, and intentions for therapy. I believe you already hold within you everything you need to heal, grow, and thrive—and I'm passionate about walking alongside you on that journey, offering support every step of the way. You can expect our work together to feel warm, nurturing, calming, and accepting.
