About Francisco
Francisco Fernandez Camenforte is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, relationship concerns and the everyday strain of parenting and family life. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and he has worked in educational and community settings.
Francisco uses person-centred, or client-centred, counselling as his primary approach. He treats each person as the expert on their own life and focuses on what the client wants to work on. He concentrates on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than lengthy theory-heavy explanations.
In past roles he has provided face-to-face and remote counselling and helped on a helpline service. That variety means he is used to brief check-ins and longer talking sessions. He aims to help people gain emotional insight and practical ways to cope with change, grief, trauma and ongoing stress.
His background includes student counselling in educational settings and community work. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He follows their ethical framework and keeps to professional standards expected in the UK.
When working together he asks people to set their own goals. Conversations often centre on improving everyday communication, managing anxiety or rethinking unhelpful patterns. Sessions tend to be straightforward, focused and directed by the client’s priorities.
How sessions work
How his approaches shape online sessions
Francisco primarily uses client-centred counselling and draws on solution-focused ideas. Client-centred work means the conversation follows what the client brings and the counsellor listens to help clarify feelings and choices. This approach can be helpful for managing anxiety, depression, relationship strain and family-related stress.Solution-focused work concentrates on small, practical steps and on what changes a person wants to see. It is often brief and action-oriented, useful when someone wants clearer next steps for communication, coping with life changes, or reducing overwhelm.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Francisco works collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person’s needs and goals. He discusses options together and adjusts the focus as sessions progress so the work stays relevant to the client’s priorities.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into daily life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break. Others value not being on camera for parts of a session to reduce emotional intensity. Practical arrangements are agreed at the start so sessions fit around work, childcare and other commitments.
