Welcome
Hola! I’m Francisco L. Esquivel, MSW, LSWAIC, (They/Them/He), a holistic psychotherapist at Counseling Services for Wellbeing. With a Master of Clinical Social Work from the University of Washington and over a decade of dedicated service, I specialize in blending traditional psychotherapy with integrative, holistic approaches to support mental health and personal transformation. I aim to help you navigate life’s challenges with compassion and understanding.
Background
My journey into psychotherapy began with a deep-seated interest in human behavior and societal influences on mental well-being. This curiosity drove me to pursue advanced studies, where I have developed a strong foundation in addressing various psychological issues. As a neurodivergent and bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist and a member of the LGBTQIA2S+ community, I bring a richly nuanced perspective to my practice, ensuring an inclusive and affirming environment for all clients.
Approach
My therapeutic approach at Counseling Services for Wellbeing is dynamic and client-centered. I focus on creating a personalized treatment plan for each individual. I draw from various therapeutic frameworks, including Humanistic Therapy, Internal Family Systems therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy, as well as methods from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. While I am not certified in each of these specific modalities, they deeply inform my practice, offering the flexibility to tailor my approach to meet each client’s unique needs without being limited to one method.
Holistic Care for the Mind, Body, and Spirit
My practice extends beyond traditional mental health therapy. I strongly believe in the interconnection of mind, body, and spirit. Through mindfulness practices, somatic therapy, and transpersonal psychology, we create a space fostering self-discovery and resilience.
