About Frank
Frank Noll uses a mix of practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people cope with stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression. He is a licensed mental health counselor - LMHC - practicing in New York with seven years of experience. He emphasizes straightforward work and clear goals during sessions.
Frank sees each person as the expert on their own life. He asks questions, listens closely, and helps people notice what is getting in the way of their goals.
Background and approach
He focuses on small, concrete steps clients can try between sessions to make daily life more manageable. His work often centers on issues related to sexual orientation and gender identity, trauma and abuse, and ADHD alongside general mood and anxiety concerns. He also supports people dealing with attachment wounds, body image struggles, relationship and communication problems, and feelings of isolation or shame.
Frank draws from several therapeutic methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and acceptance strategies. Sessions blend talking, practical exercises, and skills training aimed at reducing distress and improving coping. The tone is direct but compassionate, and sessions move at a pace each person finds comfortable.
Many clients come with complicated, overlapping concerns. Frank is used to working with co-occurring issues and helping people sort priorities. He helps set realistic, measurable steps so progress is easier to see and maintain.
If someone wants to try online work, Frank provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. He guides people through the start-up steps and supports them as they try different tools and approaches.
Therapeutic approaches for online work and flexibility
Frank often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and identity-related stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors, which is helpful for anxiety, mood, and impulsivity concerns.Choosing the right approach tends to be a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works best. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods to emphasize as progress unfolds.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face work and skills practice, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing coaching and brief updates. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to use different tools as needs change.
