  • We’ll meet for 60-minute, one-on-one sessions based on a schedule that works for you. I provide evidence-based solutions while guiding you toward a deeper understanding of your emotions. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, trauma, or feeling stuck, you're not alone—together, we’ll build the tools you need to feel more in control, confident, and fulfilled.

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and PTSD symptoms. Ongoing research supports positive clinical outcomes showing EMDR therapy as a helpful treatment for disorders such as anxiety, depression, OCD, chronic pain, addictions, and other distressing life experiences.

  • Brainspotting is a powerful, brain-based approach designed for online therapy, helping clients process trauma and emotional distress by targeting "brain spots" in the visual field. This method directly accesses the brain’s trauma centers, promoting deep healing and emotional regulation. It's highly effective for PTSD, anxiety, depression, OCD, and unresolved emotional pain, offering a path to lasting relief and resilience. Schedule a session today to experience its benefits.

  • We’ll meet for 60-minute sessions tailored to fit your schedule. In couples therapy, I use the Gottman Method and co-regulation techniques to enhance communication, deepen intimacy, and foster a stronger connection. If warranted, I take a trauma-informed approach to help partners navigate past wounds with empathy, creating a more supportive and resilient relationship.

  • I’m a certified Nurtured Heart Parent Coach. The Nurtured Heart Approach® is typically introduced as an approach for parents, professionals and educators to use toward the children and the results continue to show positive outcomes. As a certified Nurtured Heart Parent Coach, we will work together to strengthen and nurture all the connections within the family starting from exploring caregivers’ individual needs and where they are in the change process.

  • We’ll meet for 60-minute sessions designed to accommodate your family's needs. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Structural Family Therapy, and Emotion-Focused interventions to address relationship dynamics, improve communication, and foster emotional growth within the family unit. Together, we’ll work towards creating a healthier, more connected family environment.

What clients have to say

  • "Francesca is perceptive, intuitive, and always seems to understand what I need…even when I struggle to express it myself. Her insight is thoughtful, her presence calming, and each session is guided by her genuine care and heartfelt empathy. I’m most grateful for the space she holds in my continued journey to become my best self. I owe much of my growth to Francesca’s care and guidance."

    — With gratitude, A Heart in Healing 

  • "My daughter and I met Francesca in September of 2023. As a single parent (with full custody) managing my (at that time) 15 year old daughter was challenging to say the least. Francesca quickly became a trusted 3rd party that would help us solve the problems between us. Without getting too into it, my daughter and I went through some very trying (and serious) times. There was a period of time where I doubted myself as a parent and honestly felt hopeless. But the constant in all of it (as I look back) was Francesca's optimism. She continued to believe in both of us, even when it did not look good, and believed that things would and could change. And as a parent, I leaned on that belief. And sometimes it was all I had. And I am happy to say that she (and we) did not give up and are in a much better place today.  With all that kids (and teens) have to deal with these days I really believe there is a lot of value in family therapy. I can't speak for any other therapist, but I honestly don't know where my daughter and I would be without her. If it helps, I would be happy to connect with any parent considering Francesca's services. I know as a parent, I will always have challenges, but it is extremely reassuring to know that my daughter and I have someone in our corner, who will always believe in both of us."

  • "I have been doing therapy with Francesca for around 6 months and it has helped me immensely. She is very relatable and a pleasure to talk to. The work we have done in the past 6 months has opened my eyes to several life coping mechanisms. I would recommend her to anyone who may have dealt with life trauma or has issues dealing with such things as anxiety or depression. We still speak on a weekly basis and I have no plans of stopping anytime soon. 5/5 stars!"

    —JM.

  • "Francesca is someone I would highly recommend, she is patient and overall kind and understanding when it comes to talking about personal issues, she listens amazingly and provides great advice when it comes to getting over adversity."

    — CS.

  • “Francesca is kind, empathetic, professional, and knowledgeable. I have worked with Francesca for over a year, and I benefit from every session.”

    —LG.

  • "Francesca is the BEST!!! I started meeting with her when I was going through a rough time in my life, and she has helped me become the best version of myself! We’ve been meeting for a little over a year and I have had so much noticeable growth and maturity in that time. She is extremely understanding, easy to talk to, and always has the best resources and knowledge to help me with any situation or feelings I’m having. I’ve even done a few yoga sessions with her which has turned me into a total yoga-lover. She is very responsive and flexible, and always prepared for our sessions. I know that no matter what I’m going through I’ll be able to talk to her and have someone to listen and help me. Francesca has changed my life for the better and I highly highly recommend her!"

    — AW.

  • "I see Francesca regularly. As someone who has been through the ringer with therapist, I cannot recommend her enough. Therapy isn't a quick fix for anything-it takes time and Francesca gives value to that time. Truly the best therapist I have had."

    — EG.

  • "Francesca is my therapist and she's great. She's helped coach me with anxiety and understand where it stems from. She is also incredibly nonjudgemental and provides an open space to communicate. We start our sessions by talking about the time in between, then go into tips and tricks (which has a more clinical name but "tips and tricks" is kind of my go-to when it comes to managing anxiety, ha-ha). We've also done some DBT. Francesca always makes sure I am getting what I need out of therapy and asks questions to make sure it's worthwhile. I really enjoy our sessions and highly recommend her!"

    — EP.

  • "This provider Francesca Wehr was more than I could have imagined. She wants to know all about me. Supporting and a great listener. She is open, honest and very compassionate. In my 66 years of living, for the first time I feel like someone actually gets me! This was only the first visit... incredible. You won't go wrong with selecting her as a therapist for you! Like any therapy, you have to be ready as well!"

    — PG.

  • "This Licensed Clinical Social Worker provides services online, which is perfect for any disabled person seeking therapy. Francesca is extremely professional, and quite insightful. I am learning so much, and very excited for my future sessions with this dedicated therapist. I do believe there’s progress ahead!!"

    — AP.

  • "Francesca is a very kind and empathetic therapist that allows me space to think my own thoughts and come to my own conclusions. We have conversations but I don't feel guided or led by the hand."

    — DK.

  • "Francesca is amazing! She doesn’t push when a topic is too traumatic for me to talk about. She has helped me realize that not everyone is going to be happy with me and that it’s okay for that to happen."

    —AB.

  • “What stood out to me was the patience she had with me”

    — DL.

  • “I’m so thankful to people like Francesca who are committed to helping those that can’t help themselves. Especially the elderly as there aren’t many people in her field that accept Medicare but often they need the help the most. I know it was only day one but our family feels like she performed a small miracle and from the bottom of all of our hearts, thank you. We look forward to the progress Francesca will make no matter how small and know our mom will be back to herself with her help.”

  • Yes, I work with adolescents and families. I offer family therapy that supports emotional regulation, communication, and healthy relationships.
    However, I do not offer individual therapy for children under age 11, as younger children typically benefit more from in-person therapy, where play-based methods are more effective. Family or parent-based sessions may still be appropriate depending on your child’s needs.

  • Yes. My practice is 100% virtual, offering telehealth therapy for New Jersey residents through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform. This allows you to receive consistent, high-quality care from the comfort and privacy of your home—ideal for busy professionals, parents, or anyone looking for flexible, remote mental health support.

    Side note: With the recent passage of the Social Work Licensure Compact in New Jersey, I expect to offer virtual therapy across state lines within the next 6–12 months—depending on how quickly implementation is finalized. You can learn more about the Social Work Compact here for the most up-to-date information.

  • Sessions are typically 60 minutes long and tailored to your specific concerns and therapy goals. Together, we’ll explore patterns, build insight, and work on tools that support your emotional well-being and long-term growth.

    You can expect a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel seen, heard, and empowered to make meaningful change.

  • I am an out-of-network therapist, which means I do not bill insurance directly. However, I can provide monthly superbills (invoices) that you can submit to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement, depending on your out-of-network benefits.
    If you're unsure about your coverage, please visit the Payment page to learn how to check your benefits and understand your reimbursement options.

  • You can schedule a free 15-minute consultation call to see if we're a good fit. This initial call gives us a chance to talk about your goals, what you're looking for in therapy, and how I can best support you.

    Ways to schedule:

    I do my best to respond promptly and offer flexible scheduling to meet your needs.

  • The consultation is a brief, no-pressure conversation where we’ll talk about your goals, concerns, and what you're hoping to get from therapy. It’s a chance for you to ask questions and for us to get a sense of how we might work together.
    If it turns out that I’m not the right fit for your needs, I’m happy to offer referrals or recommendations to other therapists or resources that may better support you. My priority is helping you find the care that’s right for you.

    • ADHD and executive functioning challenges

    • Relationship stress and communication issues
