Frances Peña, LCSW

Psychotherapist
FL
Change is difficult, but once you contact me, we'll set up an appointment. In our first sessions, I'll listen to your story. Together, we'll develop goals and coping skills you want to work on. We'll talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly, helping you process feelings and become your best self. My focus I work with adults seeking therapy to gain self-awareness, manage anxiety or stress, and live a happier, more peaceful life. I support you through life transitions and help improve self-esteem. Whether working through trauma, building coping skills, or exploring personal goals, I'll create an empowering, achievable plan for growth. My approach I believe life is a journey, and sometimes our thoughts and experiences affect our behaviors and how we feel. I use cognitive behavioral therapy to help you identify and reshape unhelpful thought patterns. We'll work on your goals and focus on challenges as they arise, addressing day-to-day struggles while making plans for the future. My communication style I'm down-to-earth with honest, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I'm empathetic and practice active listening, giving you opportunities to reflect on your experiences. We'll address what you want and need when you're ready. My journey to mental healthcare I've always been good at listening and helping people identify when coping skills aren't allowing them to reach their potential or desired happiness. As the daughter of immigrant parents, I understand the challenges and opportunities of navigating two cultures. Seeing my clients gain confidence or find peace makes my work incredibly rewarding. My goals for you I believe therapy is your journey, and I'm your partner in helping you identify and set goals that matter to you. Goals will evolve as you grow, whether they're about building self-esteem, improving relationships, or dealing with health or work issues.
