WELCOME to my Private Practice page.  


This page lists some of the kinds of issues I look forward to helping my clients with, but note that this list is not exhaustive.  Due to limited resources in our office, there are certain services and clients which will not be available in our current setting, also mentioned below.


I look forward to meeting you and working with you to help you achieve a more satisfying level of functioning for any current "problems in living."  My clinical orientation is cognitive behavior therapy.  This approach involves making positive changes in thinking and behavior as the best way to modify negative emotions without medications.


If you would like to schedule an appointment, please call (904) 447-1467. By working remotely, I can offer appointments any day of the week.

Louis R. Franzini, Ph.D.

Clinical Psychologist

Licenses--  FL: PY7825, CA: PSY3470


Office Location                                                  

Due to COVID-19 and popular demand, I now offer all sessions remotely through a secure private platform via Psychology Today. This change allows me to expand my hours to any day and any time. It also provides you more privacy- we can conduct our sessions from the privacy of your own home. In addition, since I do not have overhead costs, I am passing those savings down to my patients and reducing my rates. Please call me at (904) 447-1467 or email me at DrFranzini@icloud.com to set up your session.
