Her specialties include substance use disorders, trauma, emotional health and wellness, life transitions, and family therapy. Brittani is trained in EMDR, ACT, and CBT. This is what Brittani has to share about her therapeutic perspective: You have qualities that only you can bring to the world. Are you ready to create the life you want and fulfill your purpose?

You want deeper relationships, a more fulfilling career, and adapt your lifestyle to live optimally. When you want to make changes, it is helpful to have an empathic person to empower you. I am passionate about helping people reach their full potential by addressing emotional and mental health, physical functioning, spirituality, and relationships. Working together we will enhance effective communication skills, reduce anxiety and stress, and build confidence to live the life you've imagined. You'll find a nonjudgmental empathic environment while we work together. A deep understanding of who you are and what you currently struggling with is essential to building your desired life and meaningful relationships.

KRISTI FRENCH, LCMHC (THERAPIST)
Kristi started out as a people person! Even before she was a counselor she found herself in jobs geared toward understanding people and empowering them to be great.
Helping adolescents find their true selves beyond anxiety and depression is a passion for Kristi, as is assisting teens with their social skill development in a world that has replaced face to face human interaction with screens.
But How?
Her approach to counseling is tailored to each individual client. She is trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a mode of treatment originally designed to treat trauma but has now been found as effective for most mental health issues.
Helping clients find peace, happiness, and reaching their goals is her focus, using a variety of resources including laughter, mindfulness, education, and understanding.
Kristi has a long work history in human resources and recruitment, specializing in recruiting nurses and medical staff. She even made it into some nursing magazines and spoke at graduation for Mercy School of Nursing.
After 16 years in that role, she decided to pursue her original desire to work in the mental health field and completed her Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling with Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 2014. During her educational program, Kristi completed her internship and practicum in a day treatment program for at-risk youth.
During her time working with day treatment clients, Kristi gained invaluable experience working with children with an array of mental health issues from Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Depression, to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). While Kristi has also worked in outpatient settings with adults, adolescents, and children, she has found that she most loves to work primarily with adolescents ages 12+, families, and young adults.
Kristi has been married for over 20 years to her college sweetheart and is the proud parent of a teen girl. When not helping clients, she enjoys spending time with her family and friends and two dogs as well as reading and traveling.
Kristi accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield and has a self-pay rate of $95.
