Phranci Williams, LCPC

Psychotherapist
MD
I'm Phranci (pronounced Frankie), a licensed professional counselor (LCPC) specializing in trauma, PTSD, EMDR, and sex-positive therapy for individuals and couples. I offer a culturally responsive, affirming space where we’ll collaboratively address anxiety, relationship struggles, identity concerns, and trauma wounds. My approach My approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in cultural humility. I use evidence-based practices like EMDR and cognitive behavioral therapy while creating a space that is affirming of your identities and lived experiences. Whether that means unpacking trauma, exploring intimacy and identity, or learning new ways to cope with stress and anxiety, I believe healing happens in relationships, and therapy should feel like a space where you are truly seen, heard, and empowered. My focus I prioritize creating a supportive, affirming space for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ clients, where your full identity is seen and respected. I bring a calm, grounded presence to sessions to help you process trauma, explore your identity, and build healthier relationships. You can expect me to listen without judgment, move at your pace, and walk with you as a compassionate partner in your healing. My communication style My communication style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I aim to create a space where clients feel both supported and gently challenged, using active listening and honest dialogue to help you explore your experiences. I speak with care and clarity, and I tailor my approach to meet you with patience, cultural awareness, and deep respect for your journey. My goals for you I help clients set goals that feel meaningful, realistic, and aligned with their values and lived experiences. In our work together, we’ll clarify what healing looks like for you. Whether that’s reducing anxiety, improving relationships, building self-trust, or processing trauma. We’ll regularly check in to make sure your goals stay relevant and supportive as your journey unfolds.
