Getting to know Francisco Medrano

Hello, my name is Francisco Medrano, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from San Diego State University. I use a client-centered approach because your relationships, goals, and healing are important to me. My approach I use a client-centered approach incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness. My focus For over 20 years, I have worked with individuals experiencing Substance Use Conditions and Anxiety. I also have over 15 years of experience working with individuals involved in the justice system. My communication style I have a calm tone focused on being empathetic, sharing hope, and sometimes humor. I like to get real with one another as rapport is being built. My journey to therapy I started my journey when I was a young teen. I always enjoyed assisting and listening to others. My journey was not always smooth, but I learned from all that I have gone through the power of sharing my thoughts and feelings. My goals for you I believe all people have the ability to set goals for themselves, but I believe in refining this process using SMART goals. My first session with you I expect our first session to be about getting to know one another while I interview you. I believe this session is about helping you believe that I can assist you with your goals.
