In Person Therapists in Plaza-Midwood, Charlotte, NC

In our lives we juggle multiple relationships/ roles every day; our relationship to friends, family, our significant others, & co-workers/ teachers. Let's not forget the relationship to ourselves, one of the most important relationships we can have! Sometimes it is overwhelming trying to be the best that we can be. Sometimes we settle for just getting by. That is okay, to a point. However, when we do not feel like ourselves, or our relationships start changing, feeling stressed, or off track, to a point that it is influencing other parts of our lives that is where I can help.

Dr. French sees adults and couples, diverse in ethnicity, religious identification, social class, gender, and sexuality. She collaborates with men and women interested in cultivating curiosity about their experience of themselves (mind and body) and desiring deeper felt connections with others. Periods of transition (beginnings and endings) are prime opportunities to invest in your mind health. Dr. French is inspired by recent findings in interpersonal neuroscience which offer considerable hope and advanced understanding of our biological capacity for healing and transformation. These findings influence the way she lives and practices her profession.

I am a seasoned mental health professional with nearly 20 years of experiences in both public and private domains of behavioral health. My career has ranged from life-threatening crisis care while treating acute mental illness - to those adjusting to difficulties with everyday life, relational problems of marriage and family, or those seeking a confidante to work through personal dilemmas. I pride myself on being able to form an honest interpersonal rapport that supports the change process. I am also an accomplished writer and a Board-Certified Clinical Supervisor in NC, guiding other mental health professionals in the industry.

At Sanctuary Counseling Group, we believe in creating therapeutic relationships with our clients to promote the healing of heart, mind & soul. Life is not meant to be done in isolation. There are times when we meet challenges too difficult to face. Even if you are surrounded by family & friends, they do not necessarily know how to help. I have the experience & skills to assist as you navigate life's trials. Whether you are facing the wonders of new love, planning a marriage, facing the loss of an infant, combating addictions, or foundering to connect in a relationship, there is help. I offer you a safe place of respite and recovery.

None of us go through life without experiencing changes or life transitions. We struggle with depression and fight off our anxiety. We go through our day on autopilot, lacking energy, and feeling hopeless. We isolate ourselves from friends and family, we feel misunderstood, or we temporarily escape reality & lessen our pain with alcohol, drugs, food, etc. Resisting change causes us pain and creates additional stress and anxiety in our lives. Acceptance and embracing change begins the healing. If we approach transitions with curiosity rather than fear, and intention rather than reluctance, we can respond to change and foster growth.
