About Francisco
Francisco Lopez Jr is a licensed clinical social worker based in Texas who helps people managing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and issues related to sexual orientation.
Background and approach
He blends practical, evidence-informed strategies with a supportive, person-centered attitude to help clients build confidence, manage difficult emotions, and regain a sense of direction. Francisco works in both English and Spanish and brings eight years of clinical experience to his practice.
His approach emphasizes collaboration: he listens for each person’s priorities and tailors interventions that fit their goals, drawing on cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and narrative work to address unhelpful thinking patterns, increase emotional awareness, and reshape personal stories.
He also addresses related concerns such as family-of-origin dynamics, relationship and communication problems, caregiver stress, and issues around adoption and foster care. Availability includes evening and weekend times to accommodate busy schedules, and sessions are offered through multiple online formats for flexibility.
How therapeutic methods translate to online care
Francisco often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; this approach is useful for concerns like anxiety, panic, and mood difficulties by focusing on practical skills and experiments. He also uses client-centered therapy to create an accepting, empathetic space where a person’s own values and goals guide the work, supporting exploration of identity and relationships. Mindfulness therapy appears in sessions as simple attention and breathing practices aimed at reducing reactivity and improving emotional awareness.Finding the right combination of methods is part of the therapeutic process. He works collaboratively with each person to determine which approaches feel most useful, adjusting techniques over time based on needs, goals, and preferences so the work remains relevant and manageable.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, attend from home or another convenient place, and maintain continuity even when routines change.
