What Makes Us Different
At Frankie’s Place, we pride ourselves on evolving and taking The FP-Way. By allowing for new scientific evidenced-based research treatment modalities to be incorporated into our clinical practices, we are able to provide the latest clinical approaches for our clients. While approaching the treatment of Mental health and Sexual counseling issues through The FP-Way, we can adapt to the complexities of the behavioral health field and improve our ability to meet individualized needs for our clients' success.
The FP Way is a treatment technique in which we focus on the complex interplay between mental health and the environment. All clients receive a thorough psychological examination prior to admission to determine whether any secondary substance use issues are contributing to their primary mental health condition.
We offer a collective approach by incorporating individual therapy towards mental health and any secondary treatment needed for the client’s success. Our holistic wellness foundation provides insight into how to achieve happiness and healthy living on a daily basis.
The FP-Way educates the clients on their challenges and builds upon their individual resources. By building upon client’s abilities and strengths allows them to foster a therapeutic environment of success!
