Francisco Fernandez Camenforte, BACP

Francisco Fernandez Camenforte helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem, depression and relationship difficulties. He also supports those coping with trauma and abuse, grief, anger, career questions, compassion fatigue and life changes. He works with people concerned about identity issues including LGBT and gender dysphoria, and those navigating ADHD, autism and family-related stress.

He uses a person-centred way of working that puts the person's experience first. Sessions focus on what matters to each individual and on their strengths. Francisco aims to offer a non-judgemental space where people can set their own goals and try practical steps forward.

He has three years of professional experience and has worked in educational counselling, community settings and on a helpline. He offers both face-to-face and remote support and draws on that range of practice to tailor sessions to each person. Francisco is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and follows their ethical framework.

In a typical session he listens carefully, reflects what he hears and helps people identify small, manageable steps. Solution-focused methods are used when someone wants practical, short-term goals. The client-centred approach is used when someone needs a space to explore feelings and build confidence.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. People in the United Kingdom can work with him by arranging video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging sessions. He encourages people to start where they feel comfortable and to move at their own pace.

How his approaches work online

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person and their experience. The counsellor listens without judgement, mirrors what they hear and supports people to find their own answers. This approach helps when someone needs to build confidence, understand feelings or set personal goals.

Solution-focused therapy looks for small, practical steps that lead to change. Sessions often focus on the next achievable action and on what already works in a person’s life. This can be helpful for people who want targeted, goal-orientated support for problems like stress, relationship concerns or coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be done together. The counsellor will discuss what the person hopes to achieve and suggest methods that fit their needs and preferences. This is a collaborative choice and can change over time.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation; phone calls suit those who prefer no camera. Live chat and messaging make it easy to check in quickly and to work in shorter, flexible moments. These options help people fit therapy around work, study and family commitments, and offer different ways to stay connected between appointments.
