About Francesca
Francesca Corea is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with nine years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, addictions, family concerns, trauma, grief, anger, career questions, bipolar symptoms, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not work with international clients.
She uses straightforward conversation and practical tasks to help people notice patterns that keep problems going. Clients can expect collaborative goal-setting, short exercises between sessions, and a focus on skills that apply to daily life. That includes attention to communication problems, family of origin issues, codependency, and struggles with guilt and shame.
Her approach draws on client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior methods, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. These methods are used to build coping skills, manage intense emotions, and improve decision-making. She often integrates simple mindfulness and mood-management practices into sessions.
Francesca emphasizes direct communication and actionable steps rather than abstract theory. She aims to help people find steadier emotional footing so they can handle parenting demands, difficult relationships, and workplace stress more clearly. Expect a mix of listening, practical suggestions, and exercises to try between meetings.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How Francesca uses evidence-based approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and working from the client’s goals. It helps people voice what matters to them and shape sessions around those priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and managing strong emotions.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills often help when someone feels overwhelmed or struggles with impulsivity. The therapist will discuss which of these approaches fits the client’s goals and tailor the focus together in a collaborative way.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Francesca will help clients decide which methods to try based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as goals change and skills develop.
