About Me

Hello, I’m Dr. Franklin. Yes, I’m a clinical psychologist (licensed in California, lic.#psy24447) but that’s not really how I work. I’m more like your personal consultant. I consult to women like you, who have already decided they deserve luxury, they deserve to flourish, and they are worth investing in themselves. (And if these are things you don’t think you deserve, then we should definitely talk.) Are you flourishing? Or just surviving? What’s getting in the way of your flourishing? Of your becoming your future self?

My clients are women who sugar or identify as sex workers, including sugar-adjacent and sex work adjacent—whether you’re just getting started, or thinking about transitioning out, or really like what you’ve already got going on but want a better version of that. My expertise is to help you with boundaries, reactions, relationships—-both square and circle, familial and romantic—- and toward your empowerment. (Are you comfortable with confrontations? Does the thought, “But what if they think I’m a bitch?” hold you back?)

The work we do is personal. Each session is tailored to what’s important to you. Technically, I take an attachment-focused, trauma-informed, identity-affirming and completely non-judgemental approach. Yet, having a background as a priest, I regard you as sacred: you are already love-worthy. You are already adequate and acceptable and belong. You already deserve luxury and to flourish. So let’s talk. What’s getting in the way of you getting what you already deserve?

My clients tell me they feel safe, supported, and very cared about. And they also like that they don’t have to explain things—-what is freestyling, who said what on Lipstick Alley, etc.—-instead you can just get to what’s important to you.

Whatever you are seeking—-psychotherapy, consultation, or a private curate (like manifesting)—-if you are seeking someone who will be affirming, non-judgmental, and knowledgeable, I’m here. Let’s talk.
