About Me

Hello! Frances, here. I'm a Hispanic, agender, queer person and licensed clinical social worker. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing therapy, and utilize a number of other trauma informed modalities, including Internal Family Systems, Trauma Focused -Acceptance Commitment therapy, and somatic techniques. I believe everyone has the capacity for growth and change. Sometimes we just need help to spark our own mind and body's natural healing processes. My experience is working with complex trauma, attachment trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety and mood dysregulation.

Education & Experience

I graduated with my Master of Arts in social work from the University of Chicago in 2019. I have over 8 years of experience helping adults and teens in crisis and over 10 years working in the social services field. I am a licensed clinical social worker and licensed addictions counselor.
