About Francisco

Francisco Lopez Jr is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with eight years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, LGBTQ concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. He also helps people wrestling with life purpose and related challenges.

Francisco focuses on practical conversation and steady guidance. He listens to what matters now, then helps people test small changes and new ways of coping. Sessions often include straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness work to reduce worry and improve daily routines.

He also uses client-centered and narrative approaches to help people clarify values and tell a clearer story about themselves. Motivational interviewing techniques are used when someone needs help finding and holding motivation for change. These methods are aimed at concrete problems like panic, relationship strain, or feeling stuck after a life change.

Francisco offers sessions in English and Spanish. He practices in Texas and brings nearly a decade of social work experience to the conversation. People often come when they want to address mood shifts, isolation, or challenges around communication and commitment.

Outside of clinical work he values travel, family time, and walking his two labradoodles. He aims to make sessions direct and useful so people can better manage stress and move forward at their own pace.

Approaches used in online sessions

Francisco often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered therapy during remote sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms. Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the persons concerns and values, helping clarify what matters most and guiding practical next steps.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to decide what methods fit their goals and preferences, adjusting as progress is made or new needs appear.

Session formats are not detailed in his biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Many people find remote appointments help fit therapy into a busy week, allow evening or weekend times, and let short check-ins happen without a long commute. Online work can make it easier to use mindfulness practices between sessions and bring real-life situations into discussion for immediate problem solving.
