About Francesca
Francesca Di Genova is a counsellor who works from a client-centred approach. She offers calm, respectful support and aims to build a trusting relationship so people feel heard. Francesca speaks English and Italian and works with common concerns such as anxiety, low self-esteem and change-related stress.
She uses Client-Centred Therapy alongside cognitive behavioural ideas. This means time is given to listening and understanding the person, while also looking at thoughts and patterns that affect feelings and actions. Sessions are practical and focused on what the person wants to change.
Francesca has eight years of experience and is a BACP member, which is noted as her professional credential. Her background includes work with anxiety, panic attacks, depression, addictions and interpersonal difficulties. She also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, career stress and sleeping problems.
She pays particular attention to relationship and intimacy issues, social anxiety and feelings of emptiness or midlife crisis. People can expect a supportive, non-judgemental space where they can talk through what matters and try new ways of coping.
Francesca explains therapy simply and focuses on small steps that make daily life easier. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.
How Francesca blends client-centred care with CBT online
Francesca works from a Client-Centred Therapy perspective, which means she prioritises understanding the person and building a respectful relationship. This approach helps when people need a supportive space to talk through feelings like emptiness, grief or relationship stress.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, a practical method that looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. CBT tools can help with anxiety, panic attacks, depression and patterns that keep problems going by breaking them into manageable steps.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to concerns, discuss options and agree together on what feels most useful. That might mean spending more time listening at first, then trying CBT techniques when the person is ready.
Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life, for example by removing travel time and allowing appointments during a lunch break or after work. If you want to proceed, confirm the session formats offered before booking so they match your needs. Registered or accredited professionals including counsellors and therapists use online work to help people manage stress, sleep problems and relationship difficulties without promising specific outcomes.
