Ashley Paulson
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LIMHP, CHt
I help adults let go of what's holding them back from thriving, being themselves, and fully living. Some common issues I address with clients include overthinking, people pleasing, perfectionism, insecurity, and trauma. I also help to create more peace and joy at home for parents who are feeling defeated. Sessions go beyond traditional talk therapy to address deeper work for lasting change. I offer a gentle, direct approach. If you are ready to release what has been holding you back, send an email to get started!

Jennifer Francke Psychotherapy, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LIMHP, LPC, LADC, LMHC
Hello, and welcome! My name is Jen Francke, and I have had the privilege of practicing as a licensed independent mental health practitioner and licensed alcohol and drug counselor for over 11 years. My journey in the field has been deeply influenced by my belief that everyone, at some point in their life, faces challenges that can feel overwhelming. While you have undoubtedly navigated through many difficulties in the past, there is absolutely no shame in seeking extra support when you need it. That’s where I come in—to walk alongside you as you work toward healing, balance, and a renewed sense of well-being.
I offer a holistic and integrative approach to therapy, blending trauma-informed, client-centered methods with proven therapeutic techniques. I am also certified as a Clinical Trauma Professional and trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which I have found to be incredibly effective for clients dealing with trauma and distressing life experiences. Whether you're seeking individual psychotherapy or substance abuse treatment, I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore, heal, and grow.
In addition to my clinical work, I have completed yoga teacher training, which has enhanced my approach by incorporating mindfulness and self-awareness practices to support emotional and mental healing. By integrating mind, body, and spirit, I work with clients to help them achieve greater mental clarity, emotional balance, and overall well-being.
No matter where you are on your journey, I’m here to help guide and support you in taking the next steps toward a healthier, more balanced life. Feel free to reach out to learn more about how we can work together toward achieving your goals.
