Getting to know Frances Blanco

Hi, my name is Frances. I understand that life happens, and that's okay. I want you to know you are not alone in your circumstances. I am here to help you heal, grow, and thrive. "Owning our story can be hard, but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky, but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light." – Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection If you struggle with wholehearted loving and living, I can help you by identifying and addressing the struggles, problems, and issues that keep you from being your very best. I love working with people to rediscover who they are or were meant to be. Sometimes the chaos and confusion that life can present may cause us to lose our way. I have extensive experience with drug and alcohol treatment, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and depression. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Loma Linda University. Again, I am here for you, and there is hope.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

She is a wonderful therapist. Warm, caring, intelligent. I would have gladly continued therapy but couldn't find time.
I love Frances, I was hoping to continue with her!
France’s is safe. She understands my depressive bias and helps me turn my thoughts around so that I can see my strengths. I’m learning to use these strengths to reach my potential.
Frances has been a joy to work with. She is direct and to the point, solution oriented, yet also calm, caring, healthily empathetic, and offered me clear and direct tools for healing. I have really grown a great deal even in the few sessions I had with Frances. I felt seen, understood, validated, and also motivated and supported to change and face the sometimes difficult aspects in myself that needed healing and changing.
She is awesome and so helpful
