In the sessions I had with Portia, I was able to meet many of my personal goals relating to my childhood and my adult relationships. Portia always gave me strategies to address my feelings and guided me towards understanding my feelings and actions. She is extremely flexible and accommodating to your own personal needs and is overall very understanding. I would highly recommend her to others who seek to improve their emotional and personal wellbeing.
Portia is a wonderful therapist and I have nothing but good things to say about her. She is warm empathetic, professional and accommodating. Highly recommend.

More about Portia Franklin, LCSW

I am a psychotherapist with more than 20 years experience helping people move beyond depression, anxiety and trauma to create richer lives and more fulfilling relationships. My goal as a psychotherapist is to help you come home to yourself—to deeply know, accept and value yourself as you truly are. I believe this quality of unconditional friendliness toward yourself, what Buddhist psychologist Tara Brach calls radical acceptance, is essential for peace of mind, personal happiness and a satisfying life. In therapy, I support you in exploring and moving beyond whatever may have blocked this level of self acceptance in the past, so you can discover the power that you have within you to create a life that is more personally and professionally rewarding. In addition to being a student of Buddhism for more than 20 years, I have training in psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral and mind-body approaches to therapy (psychomotor therapy and EMDR), and draw upon all of these skills to support you on your healing journey. I also encourage and teach meditation techniques to help you become more self aware and comfortable with the full range of your feelings. I am known to be empathic, insightful, caring and skilled, and it would be my privilege to work with you to create the therapeutic experience that best matches your needs. The first step is often the most difficult. Feel free to email or call me to discuss the possibilities. There is no charge for the initial phone consultation.

Portia is so compassionate and has taught me so many things that I can use on a daily basis. She introduced me to bilateral sound during sessions she used EMDR techniques. With her guidance, I am able to successfully deal and conquer the challenges life throws at me.
