My name is Francisco Flores and I provide regular Cognitive Behavioural Therapy online only, via Skype and video link.

I am a fully qualified and BABCP Accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist, Doctor of Psychology and BACP registered counsellor. I have over fifteen years’ experience in the treatment of a wide range of complex psychological problems including spectrum disorders, addictions, anxiety and depression.

I have worked extensively in primary, secondary and forensic settings and I have gained experience within the NHS and private practice.

My background is in Psychology, Integrative Counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy. I have also completed a 4-year Doctorate course in Counselling Psychology which leads to HCPC accreditation and registration as a BPS Chartered Psychologist.

I am originally from Venezuela, and so I’m also able to conduct CBT in Spanish if preferred.

My primary interests are in the treatment of anxiety disorders (panic disorder, generalized anxiety, PTSD, OCD, phobias, social anxiety, health anxiety), depression, addictions, low self-esteem, childhood abuse and I have additional specialist training in integrative counselling.

My approach to therapy is integrative and eclectic (if a client requires and is referred for CBT I follow a CBT evidenced based protocol).

Apart from my training and experience I have a calm, empathic and understanding nature which makes it possible for a trusting relationship to grow.

I abide by the professional and ethical standards laid down by the BABCP and BACP and I have full professional indemnity and a current DBS.
