Hello, my name is Francisca, I have experience working with community mental health, with undeserved communities and individuals from all walks of life. I've gained a lot of experience helping clients heal from traumatic experiences, process grief, and facilitated their empowerment to take on the reins of their healing journey.
I am a proud Mexican American woman who believes that we all possess inherit gifts and capacity to heal and when identified and fostered this can be our catalyst for change. I am interested in learning each person's story and offering ongoing evolving support through the alliance that we will cultivate.
I am well versed in a myriad of modalities that are trauma informed as well as psychodynamic, somatic treatment frameworks. Overall, I am an ongoing student. Aside from my professional trainings, I have learned via my individual healing journey, and from the individuals I have helped. I am passionate about helping each individual realize their path to healing.
Thank you for your interest in my counseling practice!
I provide individual counseling via telehealth for clients seeking support for anxiety, depression, grief and trauma symptoms. I believe that people are doing the best they can with the resources that they have, so my goal as a therapist is to help you develop self-awareness and coping skills so you can feel more resilient and secure in yourself.
Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with nearly 20 years of experience supporting individuals across all stages of life—from young children to older adults.

I provide holistic, compassionate, and spiritual support to individuals facing end of life and the support of their loved ones.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Escondido
Searching for therapists in Escondido starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for therapy in Escondido for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or major life changes. A therapist’s listed specialties can help you understand whether their experience matches what you want to address. Their bio may also mention approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling, which can give you a clearer sense of how they work.
In a smaller city like Escondido, the number of nearby office options may be more limited than in larger parts of San Diego County. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you see a therapist licensed in California. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer in-person or virtual sessions, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading profiles before booking can also help you learn about each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Escondido can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket estimate before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences and are accepting new patients, and you can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage for your plan and location. You can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
