About Francine

Professional depth. Personal understanding.

I created this work from both professional training and lived experience.

There was a time when I felt fragmented—trying to make sense of myself within what felt like a chaotic dating environment. What I came to understand is that while some of that chaos existed externally, much of it was internal. I was disconnected from myself, trying to find stability in places that could not provide it.

Through my background in mental health, along with deeper personal work, I began to understand the patterns beneath my experiences. Over time, I moved from emotional confusion and self-abandonment into a more integrated, grounded way of being.

This program is the result of that process.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor, owner of Real Counseling Services, and author of Good Enough: A Guide to Dating and Self-Love. I am also the creator of The BECOME Integration Model™.

Beyond my professional roles, I am also a mother, a divorcee, an entrepreneur, and a woman who has had to navigate life across different environments and experiences.

I am not separate from the women I serve.

I do not believe healing is about becoming someone else. I believe it is about becoming more integrated within yourself.
