About Dr. Gila frank
Gila Frank, Psy.D. is a licensed clinical psychologist and the founder of Cognitive Connection Therapy, PLLC. Originally from Los Angeles, California, Dr. Frank earned her Doctorate in Psychology from Pepperdine University and is now based in Houston, Texas.
Dr. Frank worked extensively at Kaiser Permanente, working in a variety of clinical settings and developing treatment programs focused on anxiety, panic and phobias, ADHD (for both children and adults), and chronic pain. This experience reinforced her belief that effective therapy should be evidence-based, practical, and tailored to the individual.
Throughout her career, Dr. Frank has worked with individuals, families, and couples from a wide range of racial, cultural, and religious backgrounds. She values inclusivity and strives to create a space where clients feel comfortable being themselves and confident that their experiences will be met with respect and understanding.
Dr. Frank provides individual and couples therapy and takes a collaborative, transparent approach to treatment. She believes that honesty, appropriate humor, and genuine connection can make even challenging work feel more approachable. A central focus of her work is self-reflection, helping clients gain insight into their patterns while building greater awareness and growth.
At the heart of Dr. Frank’s approach is the belief that meaningful change comes from insight paired with real-life tools. She is passionate about making psychology accessible and relevant, helping clients build emotional resilience, deeper self-understanding, and stronger relationships.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach us at gila.frank.psyd@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
I offer my therapy services both in person (Houston) and online, via a convenient, secure, HIPAA-compliant video conferencing platform. Using this platform, I am able to serve clients in 43 states including all PSYPACT approved states, Texas , Colorado and California. Please contact me for more information.
I am an out of network for all insurance providers and do not participate with any insurance companies directly. I provide a monthly “superbill” which can be submitted to your insurance company to take advantage of your out-of-network benefits, after meeting your deductible.
As of January 1, 2022, a new law was enacted that requires providers of healthcare to disclose what services cost so that you, as a consumer, are not surprised by bills after engaging in a service. As you might imagine, this law is most applicable to situations in which you seek hospital or emergency medical care, particularly from providers or hospitals outside of your insurance network. However, the law applies to all health care providers, and I am required as a mental health care provider to provide the following information. As I do not take insurance (I am out of network), and my fees are laid out in my consent forms before we start working with each other, this may not feel as applicable to the type of work we do together; however, please read the following information and be informed of your right to know how and what you are billed before you engage in services.
