About Andrew

LISW, LCSW, CSW in Colorado with three years of clinical experience, Andrew Franks focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ concerns, and relationship issues. He works with adults navigating life changes and challenges tied to sexuality, commitment, and isolation. Sessions center on clear goal-setting and practical steps to address what matters most now.

Andrew uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and places emphasis on collaboration. He and the person he’s working with identify goals together and decide what to try each week. Conversations are direct and focused on concrete strategies for coping, communication, and emotional regulation.

His approach attends to attachment questions, blended family dynamics, and the strains that come with non-monogamous relationships. He also addresses self-love and sexuality concerns and common young adult issues. Work in sessions can include behavioral changes, skills practice, and talking through relationship patterns.

Andrew describes therapy as a joint process of problem-solving and reflection. He encourages steady, practical steps rather than sweeping promises. Progress is tracked by the goals set at the start of treatment and adjusted along the way.

Sessions use a subscription system that can be canceled at any time and costs vary with location. To begin, choose the See online therapy options button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. Confirm current session formats before booking to match personal needs.

How his evidence-based approaches work online

Andrew’s stated methods are evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. They work well for problem-focused goals and skills practice.

Dialectical approaches teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. These techniques are useful when strong emotions or relationship conflict make it hard to stay steady in day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences and adjust the plan as progress is tracked.
