About Frances
Frances Fuller is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Mexico with seven years of practice. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, navigate parenting challenges, and cope with big life changes. Frances also has experience supporting people facing compassion fatigue and grief.
She aims to make sessions feel open and nonjudgmental so people can say what they need to. Conversations focus on what matters most now and on practical steps that fit daily life. Frances uses clear, direct talk and listens for what motivates each person.
Her approach draws from several methods, including Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. These approaches guide how she supports clients who want change, build new routines, or shift unhelpful thinking. She also uses attachment-based ideas and narrative work to look at how relationships and life stories shape current struggles.
Frances has worked across different settings over seven years and brings that variety into sessions. She pays attention to cultural context, workplace stress, fertility and pregnancy concerns, and adoption or foster care issues when they come up. The goal is to help people make steady, realistic changes.
People who choose to work with Frances start by naming a few goals and then trying small experiments between meetings. Over time those steps add up into clearer choices and less overwhelm.

How Frances uses evidence-based approaches in online work
Motivational Interviewing focuses on drawing out a person's own reasons for change. It uses open questions and reflective listening to build motivation for steps like changing habits or tackling avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how relationships and early patterns influence current coping and connection.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Frances will listen to your goals and try methods that match your needs and preferences. She collaborates with clients to test what helps, adjusting methods over time rather than promising a single path.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy helpful for fitting appointments around work, childcare, or a busy day. Online sessions can make shorter check-ins easier, avoid travel time, and let people meet from wherever they are without rearranging their whole day. -
