I came to Francine during a time in my life of upheaval, transition and deep loneliness. Within a few sessions, she has helped me to cathartically release, clarify and challenge my negative thoughts within a non-judgemental space. Even semi-regular sessions help me feel that I have a trained ally, in case of overwhelming issues I am not sure how to unpack myself. Moreover, the sessions have provided me with some directions and mental tools to work on myself in my free time for a happier and more balanced life. Francine is very professional, extremely responsive and timely, with well-prepared and thought-out materials, and it is clear that she takes the therapeutic process very seriously. At the same time, she is highly personable and compassionate, and is able to put me at ease with an empathetic and genuine style. It is clear her emotional intelligence is very high, yet she is never pushy and always conducts the session with an atmosphere of co-operation, co-creation and active listening. I cannot recommend Francine enough, and will be hoping to continue more therapy sessions with her in the future.
