Frank is excellent. He listens very carefully to his patients and helps to work on the things I worry about. Being able to message and keep a journal really helps too as Frank has access to that to help him formulate a treatment plan.

Hello,
My name is Frank Del Fiugo a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist living in Los Gatos, California. I specialize in working with adults going through difficult transitions, emotional management, and those who would like to better manage stress. While I integrate several theoretical orientations, most of my work utilizes cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and neuroscience in order to help clients gain awareness and develop tools and strategies to enhance the personal and work lives. Recently, I've integrated a Virtual Reality component to address situations such as public speaking, fear of flying, and anxiety.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
