Define Yourself

My experience enables me to offer effective virtual, individualized, psychotherapy for those residing in California. I treat a number of mental health disorders with a focus on healing the Inner Child.

Practicing since 1988, my role models include Gerald Corey, Jacob L Moreno and Virginia Satir.  I also utilize newer therapies, such as DBT, IFS and the Gottman Method to guide clients through trauma and stress.

Currently accepting new clients via Headway for virtual individual sessions.  https://headway.co/providers/kenneth-francis?utm_source=pem&utm_medium=direct_link&utm_campaign=105240

My focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. I achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a collaborative treatment plan. 

Most people seeking therapy do so based on the lack of viable coping skills attained while growing up.  For this reason, I refer many who qualify as an Adult Child to adjunctive Community Support.
