The cycle of depression ebbs and flows and can feel overwhelming at times. It is completely natural to seek the help and support of a professional to develop skills that can aid in managing such in healthy ways. I also offer support to family members of loved ones experiencing depression.

Depression
Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
When families are in addictive situations with someone they love, they are generally feeling depressed and helpless. And when an addict thinks about letting go of an addictive behaviour, they feel depressed and hopeless. This is all addressed in the therapy with Love With Boundaries Addiction Family Counselling.

Depression
Jennifer Francke Psychotherapy, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LIMHP, LPC, LADC, LMHC
Living with depression can feel isolating and overwhelming, affecting every part of your life. Whether you’re dealing with persistent sadness, fatigue, hopelessness, or a lack of interest in things you once enjoyed, depression can make even the smallest tasks feel impossible. Therapy provides a safe space to explore your thoughts and emotions, and to break free from the cycle of negative thinking. I use a variety of approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to challenge negative beliefs, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), which focuses on improving relationships that may contribute to your depression. Mindfulness techniques help you stay grounded in the present moment, while Behavioral Activation encourages you to engage in rewarding activities, even when motivation is low. My goal is to help you regain a sense of purpose and joy, rebuild your confidence, and develop healthy coping strategies to manage difficult emotions. Together, we can work to understand the underlying causes of your depression and create a brighter future. You don’t have to face depression alone—therapy can help you rediscover hope and take the first step toward healing.

Des Moines is Iowa's state capital and the center of America's insurance industry — home to Principal Financial Group, Wellmark, and dozens of other major insurers — creating a therapy demand shaped by the particular stresses of financial services careers alongside the concerns of a growing and increasingly diverse urban population. The city has experienced dramatic demographic change through refugee resettlement and immigration, with growing communities from Myanmar, Congo, and Latin America making it one of the most rapidly diversifying mid-size cities in the Midwest. UnityPoint Health — Iowa Methodist Medical Center and MercyOne Des Moines Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, with a private practice community concentrated in the West Des Moines and Urbandale corridors. Iowa's relative shortage of mental health providers makes Des Moines an important access point for the broader state, and many therapists here serve clients from smaller surrounding communities.
