About
At Mind Over Matter Counseling Center, we believe that your mind is the most powerful tool you possess- but even the best tools occasionally need recalibration. Whether you are navigating the aftermath of trauma, struggling with the weight of anxiety, or feeling stuck in cycles that no longer serve you, our mission is to help you reclaim your mental landscape.
We believe lasting change is achieved by skillfully addressing both cognitive distortions (Mind) and underlying physiological distress (Matter). Our clinical approach emphasizes skill-building, self-regulation, and nervous system awareness.
Our Story
Mind Over Matter was founded by Nichole Martin, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and dedicated clinical professional with a vision to bring high-impact, rapid-resolution therapy to the Des Moines community. With a deep background in trauma-informed care and business leadership, our center is built on the belief that everyone deserves access to therapy that actually works.
Our Vision
At Mind Over Matter Counseling Center, our mission is to empower individuals to find hope, healing, and strength on their journey toward well-being. We are dedicated to creating a safe and compassionate space where every individual is heard, valued, and supported in building a life that feels authentic and fulfilling.
