About Francisco

Francisco Olmos is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with ten years of professional experience. He creates a welcoming space where clients can explore difficult feelings and life challenges without judgment, helping them articulate what matters most and find practical ways forward.

Background and approach

His practice addresses a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression, self-esteem, career and life transitions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting, anger, and ADHD. Francisco draws on multiple therapeutic traditions to tailor work to each person’s needs.

He integrates attachment-focused perspectives, client-centered listening, cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and narrative methods to help clients reshape patterns, build coping skills, and reframe personal stories. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and use flexible online formats.

He recognizes that starting therapy is a meaningful step and aims to support people as they set goals, try new strategies, and track progress over time.

Integrating Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care

Francisco commonly draws on attachment-based work and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online sessions. Attachment-based therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps clients understand how early and current relational dynamics influence feelings and behaviors, which can be useful for intimacy issues, attachment concerns, and family-related problems. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) offers structured tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors, making it helpful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday coping challenges.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is treated as a collaborative process. He will work together with each client to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so the work stays practical and relevant to what the client wants to achieve.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions and busy routines, while allowing therapists and licensed professionals to use CBT exercises, attachment-focused conversations, and mindfulness practices in ways that suit each client’s day-to-day life.
