At Lumos Counseling & Wellness Center we specialize in providing mental health therapy services to children, adolescents, and adults to address a wide variety of mental health and emotional issues. We believe that every person can benefit from mental health therapy every now and then to talk about issues and address some of life's problems.

Making the decision to see a therapist is never easy and takes great courage. I try to provide a safe, trusting environment for adults who may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious and/or depressed. In my practice I use a supportive, solution-focused approach, which is practical and results oriented. I see therapy as a process for change rather than merely an exercise in insight.

I am a psychologist specializing in CBT for anxiety, OCD and depression. CBT is an evidence-based therapy that is proven to help people overcome thinking patterns that cause distress and prevent them from living the life they want. As a scientist-practitioner, I am committed to providing evidence-based treatment, including CBT, mindfulness, ERP, and PE. However, science can only take us part of the way. Your expertise in your lived experience is needed to complete the journey to your therapeutic destination. For this reason, I will collaborate with you to tailor your therapy experience to your unique challenges, needs, and values.

Thank you for showing interest in our services and congratulations on taking steps to improving your mental health.   My name is Zakiyyah Francisco and I am a clinical individual Psychotherapist. I have been providing comprehensive individual psychotherapy for over 15 years.  Overall, my role is to assist you with processing and working through any significant life changes, past or current traumas, and/or emotional or behavioral instability.  The goal of therapy is to help you grow and realize your full potential, build new skill-sets, reconnect to your inner strength and find inner calm and tranquility.

We all suffer, but most suffering is not necessary. We develop habits to cope with suffering, but then find we are stuck repeating patterns that no longer serve us. Creating a safe, stable, and trusting environment, we can non-judgementally perceive where we are stuck and have the courage to let go of unhealthy thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We are then able to grow in new ways that allow for gentleness, peace, and joy.

Thank you for your interest in my profile. I work with clients who need support, a clearer understanding of themselves and their environment, and are ready for change.

I see individual clients of any age (however under the age of 16, parent/caregiver collaboration is required), families, and couples. I offer a kind, supportive approach, with plenty structure and self-empowerment.

Hello and welcome! Successful therapy is so often about finding the right “fit” between therapist and client. With over 25 years’ experience in providing therapy I have had time to master multiple approaches to treatment, which means that I can customize your treatment to fit your needs. I take a collaborative problem-solving approach to treatment, where we establish an alliance to facilitate beneficial therapeutic change. As a therapist I value your experiences, desires, and goals. A major focus of my therapeutic work is with clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship problems.
