Hello, I'm Francesca Howard!
Welcome to my virtual therapy room! Here, we embrace the power of online therapy to create a safe and comfortable space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions from the comfort of your own home. No need to brave the traffic or worry about being late to an appointment; we're just a click away whenever you need support.
As a therapist, I specialise in helping individuals navigate through the turbulent waters of depression and trauma. My approach is compassionately curious, meaning I'm here to listen, explore your past with you, and help you set meaningful goals for your future. Together, we'll work towards developing new skills that can empower you to face life's challenges head-on.
I believe therapy is a collaborative journey, and I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way. Whether you're struggling with feelings of hopelessness, dealing with anxiety or panic attacks, or trying to overcome past traumas, my aim is to provide a supportive environment where you can express yourself freely and without judgement.
On a lighter note, when I'm not in therapy sessions, you might find me enjoying a good book or experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen. I have a penchant for discovering new music and sometimes indulge in a bit of painting—though it's more about the joy of the process than the end product!
In our sessions, we'll focus on areas like self-love, overcoming guilt and shame, and finding your life purpose. We'll also tackle any communication problems or feelings of isolation and loneliness you might be experiencing. Through a schema-focused approach, we'll delve into patterns that may be holding you back and work towards fostering healing and forgiveness.
Your expectations are important to me, and I strive to proactively check in with you, ensuring our sessions are tailored to meet your unique needs. As someone who values a non-religious and open-minded perspective, I welcome clients from all walks of life who are ready to embark on a therapeutic journey.
If you're ready to take the next step towards a brighter tomorrow, feel free to reach out. Let's begin this journey together, one message at a time!
