Hi there, I'm Francisca!

It takes courage to be vulnerable and embark on the journey of healing. I believe every person has the capacity for self-discovery and meaningful growth, and my work is to create a safe, non-judgmental space for that journey. I am honored to walk alongside you as you explore your strengths, navigate challenges, and work towards your goals.

My focus

I have experience helping clients work through stress, social anxiety, trauma, and struggles with self-worth. My practice focuses on empowering individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds heal from past and current experiences, who are curious about their inner world and willing to explore their thoughts, emotions, and underlying issues.

My approach

I strive to understand each person’s story with compassion, helping you uncover insights that support your emotional well-being. I combine a humanist psychodynamic client centered approach. I apply an integrative therapeutic approach drawing from a wide range of techniques as needed, adapting my approach to address your unique and evolving needs.
