Jennifer Francke Psychotherapy, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LIMHP, LPC, LADC, LMHC
In today’s fast-paced world, stress can feel like a constant companion, affecting your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Whether it’s work pressure, family responsibilities, financial worries, or life transitions, stress can become overwhelming. Therapy can help you regain control, reduce anxiety, and cultivate a more balanced life. I offer a supportive, safe space where we can explore the sources of your stress and develop personalized stress management techniques tailored to your needs. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge negative thinking, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) to promote relaxation, and relaxation techniques to reduce physical tension, we can work together to build healthier coping mechanisms. Additionally, I help you improve time management skills, incorporate self-care, and build emotional resilience to manage life’s challenges more effectively. With therapy, you can take the first step toward regaining balance, reducing stress, and improving your overall sense of well-being.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
In today's fast-paced world, stress has become an almost ubiquitous part of daily life. While some stress can be beneficial, motivating individuals to meet deadlines or perform at their best, chronic stress can have detrimental effects on both mental and physical health. Hypnotherapy, a therapeutic practice that utilizes the power of suggestion and visualization, offers a unique and effective method for managing stress. By addressing the underlying psychological triggers of stress and promoting relaxation and positive thinking, hypnotherapy can help individuals achieve a more balanced and harmonious state of mind.

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.
