More about Francesca

  • 13 years' experience
  • Female
  • PACFA

I am a counsellor with a background in psychology credentialed in Australia with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, OCD, relationship issues, family conflicts, & parenting issues.

I am a trained facilitator of Tuning into Teens. My experience in working with young people and my role as a parent have provided me with compassionate insight in parent-child relationships.

I believe counselling is walking alongside and treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
