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.
I offer a therapeutic approach that ensures you a safe, comforting, non-judgmental, validating space to discuss your pathway to healing.  I am certified in DBT and I am trained IFS, CBT, solution focused, Cognitive processing therapy and Mindfulness. During our time together, you will learn beneficial and effective coping skills.
I provide many multiple modalities and I will apply treatment according to each individual therapeutic needs. I’d like to welcome you on your journey of healing and self-reflection, and I look forward to joining you on this pathway to achieve your goals.   I offer a free 15 minute phone consult, please contact me to start your journey.
