More about Francesca

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am a BACP qualified counsellor working in a person-centred way. This means I offer a warm, supportive and nurturing environment where I will listen without judgement and prejudice to whatever feels most significant to you. I believe being heard can help you feel understood and less alone in the world.

I have a background in the NHS providing physical and emotional rehabilitation to stroke and neurological impaired patients. I have counselling experience supporting clients coping with bereavement as well as those affected by a life-limiting illness such as cancer. I currently work with BUPA counselling Macmillan and oncology clients. I also work with many other concerns, for example, stress, depression, anxiety, relationship issues and self-esteem

I understand that some situations or life changing events can become over whelming and difficult leading to intense feelings . Although it may not be possible to change your situation, I can provide a non-judgmental, warm, empathic, relaxed space that may help you untangle your feelings, feel more in control and make decisions.

Starting therapy can be daunting and seem like a big step. I hope to be able to put you at ease and feel less isolated on your journey.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
