Francesca Lupo

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS

I offer services in English. 

Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck in patterns of anxiety, stress, and emotional overwhelm. They often feel an urgency to “fix” themselves quickly, but end up frustrated when lasting change feels out of reach.

In our work together, I help clients slow down that impulse and create space to truly understand and accept what they’re experiencing. Using a compassionate, mindful, and individualized approach, I guide them in building awareness, resilience, and new ways of relating to their challenges. I also bring my authentic self into the room, fostering a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can be open, vulnerable, and genuine without fear of being judged or analyzed.

Over time, clients find themselves feeling more grounded, capable, and at peace. They develop healthier ways of managing anxiety and emotions, gain confidence in navigating life’s challenges, and begin living with greater joy, balance, and authenticity.
