About Francis Clark

Francis brings a warm, accepting presence to her work and emphasizes meeting each person where they are. Her counseling approach centers on practical, action-oriented techniques, with a particular preference for cognitive behavioral therapy because of its focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts.
