About Franciane
Franciane Weinhardt Conroy is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has six years of professional experience. She helps people with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. She speaks English and Portuguese and works from the United Kingdom.
She aims to make the first session straightforward and calm. Sessions focus on what feels most pressing, whether that is panic, persistent worry or problems with connection and trust. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people spot small changes that can make daily life easier.
Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and life problems. Conversations include looking at how past relationships affect current ones, and practical steps to reduce intense anxiety and panic. She also works on feelings of shame, guilt and isolation that often sit alongside depression.
Franciane pays attention to cultural background and multilingual needs when these affect how someone experiences stress or relationships. She supports people who are navigating infidelity, family of origin issues and codependency by helping them clarify boundaries and next steps.
Practical help may include breathing and grounding practices for panic, structured ways to notice thinking patterns, and planning small experiments to try out new behaviours. To begin, she asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How evidence-based methods are used in online sessions
Franciane draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. That approach involves identifying common thinking traps, testing those thoughts in everyday situations, and practising alternative responses to reduce anxiety and panic.She also uses relational and attachment-focused work to look at how earlier relationships influence current ones. This helps when difficulties with trust, codependency or family of origin issues are part of what causes distress. Sessions may include exploring patterns and trying small, manageable changes in how someone relates to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and is decided together. Franciane discusses goals and preferences, then adapts the methods she uses to fit what someone wants to achieve. This collaborative way helps people see which techniques feel useful for them.
Check the session options before booking to confirm the formats she offers. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or making it simpler to schedule appointments around work or study. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, can help you weigh practical arrangements alongside therapeutic fit.
