Jennifer Francke Psychotherapy, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LIMHP, LPC, LADC, LMHC
If anxiety is impacting your daily life, relationships, or overall well-being, therapy can help you regain a sense of peace and control. I understand how overwhelming anxiety can be—whether it’s constant worry, racing thoughts, or panic attacks. Through a compassionate, non-judgmental approach, I offer personalized therapy to help you uncover the root causes of your anxiety and develop effective coping strategies. Using evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we will work together to challenge negative thought patterns, build resilience, and reduce the intensity of anxious feelings. I also provide tools like relaxation techniques and exposure therapy to help you face your fears in a safe and controlled environment. Therapy offers a transformative step toward healing and creating a calmer, more balanced life. If you’re ready to take that step, I am here to support you on your journey to managing anxiety.

Debra Younger
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, LPC, LMHC, CCPT
Anxiety is a warning sign, a symptom, that things are "off" in our internal system, it is not the problem in and of itself.
Internal Family Systems provides the way to identify the underlying causes of anxiety and resolve them, thus resolving the anxiety.

Emily Hurlin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW, LCSW
Anxiety often lives in the body first: a tight chest, racing thoughts, a constant sense that something is about to go wrong. Along with talking through what worries you, I use body-based tools from Somatic Experiencing to help your nervous system learn what safety feels like again. When anxiety is rooted in past experiences, EMDR can help reduce its intensity. For couples, we also look at how one partner's anxiety and the other's response can feed each other, and how to interrupt that cycle.
