Jennifer Francke Psychotherapy, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LIMHP, LPC, LADC, LMHC
I understand the unique challenges women face throughout different stages of life, from balancing career and family to navigating personal identity and societal expectations. Whether you are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, body image issues, health concerns, or the emotional toll of major life transitions, therapy can offer a supportive space for you to process, grow, and heal. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where you can explore your experiences, build resilience, and cultivate a sense of empowerment. Together, we can work towards finding clarity, improving self-worth, and creating a more fulfilling, balanced life.

Dr. Annette Gallardo, PhD
Life Coach, Christian Marriage Coach for Wives
You love your husband, but constantly trying to make your marriage better can leave you feeling emotionally alone, unheard, and exhausted. I help Christian wives recognize when they're taking on too much responsibility, establish healthy boundaries, and communicate their needs without guilt. My coaching encourages you to care for your emotional well-being while remaining grounded in your faith and values. You deserve support as you navigate difficult marriage patterns, even when your husband is unwilling to change. Faith-based online coaching is available nationwide in English and Spanish.

Shelley Klammer
Counselor/Therapist, MTC, REACE, FOT, CHyp
Do you consider yourself spiritual, empathic, intuitive, creative, deep-thinking, or highly sensitive (HSP)? Do you sometimes struggle with emotional overwhelm, anxiety or depression? Are you frequently the empath to the narcissist in your relationships? Do you often ignore what you need and feel codependent or are overly self-reliant in your connections with others?
Do you sense that “younger,” unhealed aspects within you might be sabotaging your health, livelihood, relationships, or your willingness to ask for support? I specialize in supporting women to heal “unfinished emotional business” from the past in a strength-focused, non-pathologizing, depth-oriented, and strictly confidential way.

Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Women often juggle multiple roles and responsibilities while managing expectations related to work, family, relationships, and self-care. Over time, this can contribute to stress, anxiety, self-doubt, burnout, or feeling disconnected from one’s own needs. These challenges are often influenced by deeply ingrained patterns at a subconscious level.
My approach to working with women’s issues is individualized and collaborative. Hypnosis provides a supportive space to address concerns such as anxiety, stress, confidence, self-esteem, life transitions, and emotional balance. Each session is tailored to the individual’s goals, experiences, and circumstances, allowing change to occur in a way that feels respectful and empowering.
Clients often seek hypnosis during periods of transition, increased stress, or when long-standing patterns no longer serve them. Hypnosis offers a drug-free, complementary approach that helps clients remain aware and in control while developing greater calm, clarity, and confidence.
This work is not a replacement for medical or mental health care, and I do not recommend changing prescribed medications without consulting a healthcare provider. When appropriate, hypnosis can be used alongside other professional support to help women feel more grounded, resilient, and connected to themselves.
