Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Stress is a natural response, but when it becomes chronic it can affect focus, sleep, mood, and overall well-being. Many people understand the sources of their stress yet still feel stuck in patterns of tension, overwhelm, or constant mental pressure. These responses are often reinforced at a subconscious level.
My approach to stress reduction is personalized and practical. Through hypnosis, we focus on helping the nervous system settle, reducing habitual stress reactions, and developing healthier responses to everyday demands. Each session is tailored to the individual rather than using scripted techniques, allowing the work to address both emotional and physiological components of stress.
Clients often seek hypnosis for work-related stress, caregiver stress, life transitions, or ongoing mental fatigue. Hypnosis offers a drug-free, complementary approach that helps clients remain aware and in control while learning to respond to stress with greater calm, clarity, and resilience.
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 restore balance, focus, and emotional well-being.

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.
