COUNSELING IN COLORADO

Individual & Couples Therapy That Helps You Feel Like Yourself Again

When You’re Ready to Stop Surviving and Start Thriving

You’re not broken.

You’re overwhelmed. Disconnected. Stuck in patterns that made sense at one time — but aren’t working anymore.

Whether you’re navigating anxiety, relationship strain, life transitions, burnout, or emotional disconnection…

therapy can help you move from survival mode into clarity, confidence, and connection.

This is therapy that goes beyond talking.

This is therapy that integrates insight, embodiment, and real-life change.

A DIFFERENT KIND OF THERAPY EXPERIENCE

At Francisca Consulting & Counseling, therapy is collaborative, relational, and grounded in the body.

Because your nervous system holds your stress.
Your body carries your history.
And your relationships reflect your patterns.

We work with:

  • Individuals seeking clarity, boundaries, confidence, or emotional regulation

  • Couples wanting to rebuild intimacy, repair communication, and deepen connection

  • Adults navigating grief, divorce, life transitions, blended families, or identity shifts

  • Professionals experiencing burnout, overwhelm, or loss of direction

Therapy here is active. Insightful. And deeply attuned.

For Individuals

From Self-Doubt to Self-Trust

If you’re tired of:

  • Overthinking everything

  • Saying yes when you mean no

  • Feeling resentful but unsure how to speak up

  • Repeating the same relationship patterns

  • Living in quiet anxiety or emotional exhaustion

Individual therapy helps you build clarity, boundaries, and emotional steadiness.

You don’t have to keep carrying everything alone.

For Couples

From Disconnection to Intimacy

If you’re tired of:

  • Overthinking everything

  • Saying yes when you mean no

  • Feeling resentful but unsure how to speak up

  • Repeating the same relationship patterns

  • Living in quiet anxiety or emotional exhaustion

Individual therapy helps you build clarity, boundaries, and emotional steadiness.

You don’t have to keep carrying everything alone.

My Approach

I integrate:

  • Somatic & embodiment-based techniques

  • Attachment-focused therapy

  • Trauma-informed care

  • Relationship science

  • Nervous system regulation tools

  • Practical communication strategies

We don’t just talk about patterns.

We slow them down.
We understand them.
We shift them.

Because real change happens when your mind and body are both involved.

COLORADO COUPLES WORKSHOPS FOR CONNECTION IN MOTION

BEYOND WORDS WORKSHOPS

Beyond Words is a series of interactive Colorado couples workshops designed to help you explore relational themes in a fun, engaging, and embodied way.

This isn’t therapy.

It’s a guided, experiential space where you and your partner can step out of daily stress and into curiosity, play, and meaningful connection.

No performance.
No dance experience required.
No pressure to “share everything.”

Just thoughtful facilitation, interactive experiences, and space to reconnect.

Beyond Words is ideal for couples who want proactive relationship growth — whether things feel steady and you want to deepen connection, or you’re noticing tension and want support in a contained, community-based format.

It’s relationship development — in motion.

Rooted in body-based and polyvagal-informed principles, these workshops use simple movement, structured exercises, and reflective prompts to help you:

  • Better understand how you and your partner respond under stress

  • Explore communication patterns in a low-pressure environment

  • Practice connection and repair in real time

  • Nurture intimacy in new and creative ways

HI, I’M FRANCISCA!

I’m so glad you are here.

I’m a Colorado Licensed Professional Counselor and Board-Certified Dance/Movement Therapist offering embodied, polyvagal-informed therapy for individuals and couples.

If you’re here, something probably feels heavy.

You might look like you’re holding it together — but inside feel anxious, disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to shift.

I want you to hear this clearly:

You’re not broken.

Your nervous system adapted. Your patterns protected you.

My work focuses on embodied recovery — helping you regulate your nervous system, understand your attachment patterns, and rebuild connection through body-based and dance/movement therapy.

Because healing doesn’t happen through insight alone.

It happens through safety.
Through regulation.
Through new experiences in your body.

Whether we’re working individually or in couples counseling, our sessions are relational, active, and grounded in real-life change.

You don’t have to perform here.
You don’t have to have the “right” words.
You just have to show up.

We begin there.

In your corner,
Francisca
