Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Frances Fuller

Frances draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships influence current patterns - this approach helps people improve connection, address parenting concerns, and understand relational responses that affect stress and intimacy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress management by teaching practical coping skills and problem-solving techniques. Frances also incorporates EMDR, a trauma-focused method that supports processing distressing memories and can reduce the intensity of trauma-related symptoms.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Frances works with each person to assess needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she tailors methods over time so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or geographic constraints. These formats allow licensed professionals to offer consistent care, make follow-up easier between sessions, and adapt pacing and tools to what works best for each person.
