Frantell is passionate about integrating the various roles of counseling psychologists, including research, teaching, clinical work, supervision, training and advocacy. In each of these roles, she aims to promote social justice and multiculturalism.

One of her main goals and passions is to give science away through public service. Her viewpoint is that as we spend a lot of time studying and thinking about critical issues of social justice, it is also beneficial to empower individuals to be able to use this information in a constructive way.
