About Francisco

Francisco Lopez Jr is a licensed clinical social worker in Texas with eight years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem struggles. He also supports those navigating LGBTQ+ related concerns, trauma and abuse, and panic symptoms. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

Francisco aims to make therapy easy to approach. He creates a calm space where people can talk openly about what’s worrying them. He focuses on practical steps and honest conversation rather than labels or jargon.

His work blends straightforward, person-focused care with techniques that help shift unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot and change patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. Client-Centered methods keep the conversation guided by the client’s values and goals.

Mindfulness exercises and narrative techniques are used to help people reconnect with their priorities and find meaning after difficult experiences. Motivational Interviewing supports people who feel stuck and want to make changes but are unsure how to begin.

Outside the office he enjoys travel, family time, and life with his partner and their two labradoodles. He understands the juggling many people face between work, home, and personal needs, and aims to help clients find clearer balance and purpose.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. The therapist reflects what the client says and helps them set goals that feel important and achievable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches clear steps to change them, which can be practiced between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. It can also let people choose sessions at different times of day to match work and family schedules, helping therapy feel more manageable alongside everyday responsibilities.
