Ms Francyne Foxman

Psychotherapist

Over 25 years working with all ages, genders & those from varied socio-economic status in a collaborative and interactive manner.

About Me

With over 25 years of experience, I welcome individuals of all ages, genders, and varied socio-economic backgrounds. My approach is deeply collaborative and interactive, fostering a space where your voice is central. I partner with you to explore challenges and find clear ways forward. This inclusive style helps ensure everyone feels truly heard and supported in their unique journey.

Approach

Years working with diverse clients shaped how I structure therapy: we set clear, manageable goals, try short practical experiments in session, and review what shifts. Sessions in my Torrance office or via English-language telehealth move at a steady, focused pace—checking mood, practicing brief mindfulness, and clarifying choices so change carries into daily life. I use concise assessments to track progress and offer small, realistic homework between meetings. This way of working often fits people seeking practical, compassionate support through transitions, trauma recovery, or relational strain.
