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 works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, anger, addictions, grief, trauma and life changes. Her approach centers on practical steps clients can use between sessions to handle day-to-day problems.
She uses clear communication and active listening to identify what is driving someone’s reactions. Sessions often include skills practice such as mood management, assertiveness training, and mindfulness exercises. Francesca draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy principles to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try different responses.
Clients can expect collaborative work that includes take-home tasks and short-term goals. The focus is on tangible strategies for reducing reactivity, improving communication, and managing impulses. She also addresses issues tied to family of origin, codependency, abandonment, and relationship patterns that can keep anger cycling.
Francesca incorporates motivational interviewing techniques when people are working through changes like addiction recovery or lifestyle shifts. Mindfulness and meditation are used in-session to help slow intense emotions and build awareness of triggers. She aims to help people find steadier ground so they can make clearer decisions.
Her practice also covers career concerns, ADHD-related impulsivity, guilt and shame, seasonal mood shifts, and women’s and young adult issues. Sessions are offered in English in Florida, and practical steps are emphasized over labels or long theoretical explanations.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and what online sessions focus on
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people can clarify what matters to them. It helps when someone needs a steady, collaborative conversation to sort through anger triggers and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers straightforward exercises to change unhelpful thinking and to test new behaviors when stress or anger flares.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills are useful when impulsivity or strong reactions make communication harder. Francesca will work with each person to decide which approaches fit their situation and goals. Choosing methods is a joint process that can change as progress is made.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when helpful. Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what options are offered. Many people find that scheduled remote meetings let them practice skills in real-life settings and bring immediate examples back to therapy for problem-solving.
