I have a specialty in working with men, women and couples to help them uncover specific fears and other social anxieties My areas of expertise include treatment of depression, anxiety, panic, sleep and eating difficulties, education and career transitions, bereavement, and relationship crises. I facilitate a weekly support group for women survivors of sexual abuse.Through a partnership of trust and curiosity, we will understand how feelings and emotional patterns impact important people in your lives and your choices. I respect the social, political and religious values that shape your sense of self, morality and purpose in life.Though a long term New York resident, I have lived and worked in the Philippines, Japan, Spain and the UK for over 20 years and have integrated my extensive years of training, practice and diverse cultural experience to work with people of all ages and cultural backgrounds.Contact: Frances V.
