About Francisco

Francisco Fernandez Camenforte helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and self-esteem concerns using client-centred and solution-focused approaches. He is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years of professional experience in counselling.

He works with people who are coping with life changes, grief, trauma and abuse, anger and career pressures. He also offers support for LGBT matters, compassion fatigue and ADHD, and has experience with autism and Asperger syndrome, communication problems, and caregiver stress.

Francisco has worked in educational and community settings, provided face-to-face and remote counselling, and supported callers on a helpline. This range of settings means he is used to short-term check-ins and longer conversational sessions, depending on the person’s needs.

In sessions he starts from the person’s own perspective, listening to what matters most to them and helping set practical goals. Solution-Focused methods are used to identify small, achievable steps. Client-Centred work focuses on the person’s experience and priorities.

He offers counselling in English and Spanish and practices within the ethical framework of the BACP. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How his approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s perspective and priorities. The counsellor listens without directing the outcome and helps individuals set their own goals; this approach is useful for self-esteem, identity and relationship concerns.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and on what is already working. It helps people create short-term goals and notice changes over time, which can be useful for stress, coping with life changes and career issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Francisco will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped before, and will suggest how the two approaches might be used together. The choice of methods is collaborative and reviewed as sessions progress.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so ask to confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also offers a way to continue work between in-person appointments when that suits the person.
