Frank Centonze, LPC

Frank Centonze is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Texas with 15 years of experience. He works with stress, anxiety including social anxiety and phobias, addictions, trauma and abuse, mood concerns, relationship strain, grief, anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.

He focuses on clear, practical steps in sessions. Frank talks through communication problems, codependency, attachment issues, and feelings like emptiness or guilt. He also sees people dealing with caregiver stress, first responder issues, fatherhood concerns, and problems rooted in family of origin.

His approach draws on several evidence-based methods to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding. Sessions often include learning concrete skills, testing new behaviors in everyday situations, and practicing ways to manage intense emotions. Therapy can also include looking at how early relationships shape current reactions and connections.

Frank aims to make therapy understandable and usable. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy as tools depending on what a person needs. Over time he helps people build routines and problem-solving habits that fit their daily life.

People who come for social anxiety or communication worries can expect focused work on specific situations that cause distress. He encourages gradual steps, rehearsing social moments, and learning skills to reduce avoidance. Sessions move at a practical pace toward clearer goals and manageable change.
