Francisco Fernandez Camenforte, BACP

Francisco Fernandez Camenforte is a counsellor who helps people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship problems and depression. He also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, anger and life changes. He works in English and Spanish and practises in the United Kingdom.

He draws on three years of professional experience in educational and community settings. That work has included face-to-face and remote counselling, and time supporting people on a helpline. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and follows their ethical framework.

In sessions he follows a person-centred approach. He aims to create a calm space where people can set their own goals. The focus is on listening, helping people name what matters, and supporting practical steps forward.

He also uses solution-focused methods to help people identify small, concrete changes. These techniques are often used alongside person-centred listening when someone wants quick, practical steps to try between sessions.

Francisco emphasises respect and non-judgement. He encourages clients to build on their strengths and take manageable steps toward change. If someone is unsure which approach will suit them, he works collaboratively to decide on a plan.

People considering support are invited to think about what they want to change and what would feel different. That helps make early sessions focused and useful.

How his approaches work for online counselling

Francisco uses person-centred counselling to create a space where clients can lead the conversation. This approach focuses on listening, empathy and helping people find their own solutions. It suits issues like low self-esteem, grief and exploring difficult feelings.

He also draws on solution-focused therapy when clients want clear, short-term goals. This method helps identify small, practical steps to try between sessions and track what improves. It can be useful for stress, anxiety and relationship concerns where people want tangible changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about needs, goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working. That recommendation is reviewed over time and adjusted if something doesn’t feel helpful.

When considering online counselling, check which session formats are currently offered before booking. Francisco’s background includes remote counselling, but specific formats should be confirmed. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit those who prefer not to be on camera or who need lower-bandwidth options. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use these methods to help people maintain continuity of care and keep therapy practical and reachable.
