Nicole French, PsyD
Introduction
Dr. French sees teens (13+), adults and couples, diverse in ethnicity, religious identification, social class, gender, and sexuality. She collaborates with individuals who desire a deeper felt connection with self and others. Dr. French is inspired by interpersonal neuroscience findings which offer considerable hope and advanced understanding of our biological capacity for healing, post-traumatic growth, and thriving. These findings influence the way she lives and practices her profession. Dr. French is invested in life long learning and consultation and has benefited from in person training events from many leading experts to include Dan Siegel, Susan Johnson, John and Julie Gottman, Diana Fosha, Stephen Porges, James Finley, and others. Dr. French works from a theoretical framework informed by her psychodynamic and systems training and her interest in relational psychotherapy. Dr. French is a collaborator with clients invested in cultivating a robust conversation with one’s embodied self in relationship to the contexts of one’s life. Therapy is an investment of time, energy, and money into a process of noticing and upgrading adaptive patterns of thinking, feeling, and interacting that are no longer in service of happiness, joy, and freedom. Research suggests that novelty and intensity are needed to rewire the brain. Consequently, Dr. French recommends weekly sessions at a minimum for individuals seeking lasting change. For couples, she offers 90 minute sessions.
