Franciane Weinhardt Conroy, BACP

Franciane Weinhardt Conroy is a United Kingdom credentialed therapist with six years of clinical experience and a BACP accreditation - registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She works with people facing stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, motivation challenges, self-esteem and confidence concerns, and depression. Her practice also addresses related areas such as attachment difficulties, codependency, family of origin and family problems, guilt and shame, infidelity, isolation and loneliness, multicultural concerns, panic disorder and panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, self-love, social anxiety and phobia, and young adult transitions.

Franciane aims to create an open, nonjudgmental environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored and named. She helps clients clarify what matters to them, set practical goals, and develop coping strategies that fit their everyday lives. Her work is informed by evidence-based therapeutic techniques and tailored to each person’s needs. Franciane acknowledges that beginning therapy often requires courage and honors those who take that first step. She offers support in both English and Portuguese and focuses on building a collaborative relationship that supports long-term wellbeing.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Remote Care

Franciane draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people manage symptoms and build healthier patterns. One common focus is anxiety and stress management - practical strategies and skills are taught to reduce overwhelming thoughts and improve day-to-day functioning, which can be useful for panic attacks, social anxiety, and persistent worry. Another area is trauma-informed work - careful, paced interventions support processing difficult experiences and reducing their impact on relationships and self-worth. These approaches are applied with attention to relationship difficulties, self-esteem, and family of origin concerns.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Franciane works collaboratively with clients and registered professionals to explore goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds to ensure a good fit.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, access support from home, and continue work consistently when in-person meetings are not possible. The focus remains on effective, evidence-informed care adapted to each person’s circumstances.
