Welcome Francesca
Welcome to a Compassionate Space for Healing and Growth
Are you grappling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or the strain of a difficult relationship? Perhaps you’re facing low self-esteem or feeling disconnected from your sense of self, impacting your daily life, relationships, career, or future aspirations.

Do you feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or frustrated—finding it hard to live up to expectations, whether your own or others’? Maybe the thought of just getting through the day feels like a burden, and the idea of a brighter future seems distant or out of reach.
You might often wonder if there’s more—more fulfilment in your relationships, your work, your life. Many people today are experiencing heightened anxiety, uncertainty, or grief. Whether you’re struggling to overcome a tough relationship, processing a profound loss, recovering from the impact of sexual assault or a traumatic accident, or seeking to rebuild your self-esteem, I am here to support you.
I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space to help you explore and understand the patterns and emotional wounds that have kept you feeling stuck. Together, we will work towards breaking free from those self-perpetuating cycles, acknowledging the impact they’ve had on your life. Through this process, we will find a path forward—one where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes, so you can move towards the life you truly desire.
Take the first step today—book a free consultation to begin exploring what therapy could look like for you. Let’s work together to help you feel heard, understood, and ready to move toward your goals.

After meeting with Francesca regularly for therapy sessions for the past months, I really feel much much better mentally and more at peace with my emotions. I have learned so much about different strategies and resources to cope with stress, anxiety etc and more importantly, I have learned so much about myself and become more accepting of myself.
