About
Sophie Francksen is an art therapist and provisionally licensed mental health counselor who works with older teens and adults. Common concerns include anxiety, depression, trauma and life transitions.

Her stated goals for clients are more self-awareness, better self-esteem, emotional resilience and less distress. She earned an M.S. in Art Therapy with an emphasis in counseling from Mount Mary University in 2025. She practices under the clinical supervision of Tami Hunter, LISW, RPT-S. She also holds a BA from Luther College (2022). Office: Joyful Mind Psychiatry & Therapy Services, 315 6th St, Suite 100, Ames, IA 50010.
