About Frances
Frances Fuller is a licensed clinical social worker in New Mexico who helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, and life changes.

Frances also offers support for issues such as compassion fatigue, ADHD, and trauma and abuse.
Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. She aims to build an open space where clients can say what they are feeling and thinking without judgment.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs and comfort level. Frances uses a mix of practical methods to help people try new ways of coping. She applies techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot patterns of thought.
She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at relationships and how they affect mood and stress. For those processing difficult events, she incorporates narrative work to help make sense of personal stories. When trauma is part of the picture, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing may be offered as one option among others.
Motivational interviewing is used to support readiness for change and to set achievable goals. People often come to Frances for help with parenting strain, workplace stress, fertility and adoption-related concerns, postpartum and pregnancy matters, and the effects of prejudice or discrimination. She speaks English and practices with attention to multicultural influences and life context.
Therapeutic approaches for anxiety and life stress online
Attachment-based work looks at how relationships shape feelings and behaviors. It helps people understand patterns in close relationships and reduce stress that comes from connection issues. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each client about their goals, symptoms, and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared visual cues. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging give a shorter, flexible way to stay connected between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, childcare, and busy schedules.
