About Frances

Frances Fuller is a licensed clinical social worker in New Mexico who helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, and major life changes. She also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue, grief, trauma, and mood concerns. Her manner is direct but warm, and she aims to make the first step feel manageable for someone who is worried or unsure.

Frances keeps sessions straightforward. She builds a calm space where people can say what’s on their mind without judgment.

Background and approach

Conversations focus on practical steps and on understanding patterns that get in the way of feeling better. Her work often includes techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions.

When trauma is part of the story, she may incorporate EMDR methods as one option. Frances draws on seven years of clinical experience and a left-of-center human approach that values each person’s story. She pays attention to cultural and life-context factors that affect mental health, including adoption and foster care, fertility concerns, and workplace stress.

People who come for help with parenting or relationship strain will find practical tools and space to problem-solve. She also supports those facing postpartum challenges, seasonal mood shifts, discrimination, and first responder stress. Sessions are offered in English and delivered through several online formats.

Online support

How Frances’ approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based ideas look at how early connections shape current reactions and relationships; online sessions use discussion and focused exercises to help people notice those patterns and try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes; this approach often uses homework and simple tools that are easy to review over video or chat. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used for processing traumatic memories and can be adapted for remote formats with guidance on pacing and grounding.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Frances will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that match those needs. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan when something isn’t working, so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions reduce bandwidth needs, live chat supports quicker check-ins, and text messaging is useful for brief ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare, or busy days while still using the same therapeutic methods.
