“Pleasant, Jennifer was real and honest. She has a clinical background which I appreciate but also has a human element.”

“Dr French is so authentic and caring, and tries to get to the root of the issue instead of just treating the symptoms. She knows the questions to ask to help me understand my progress and what I've accomplished. I feel so much more hopeful after each visit with her.”

Getting to know Dr. Jennifer French
My pursuit of medicine began with combined undergraduate and medical education in New York and continued at Michigan State University, where I was a member of the Osteopathic Scholars Program. I graduated from medical school in 2016 and completed my four-year psychiatry residency in South Florida before moving to Colorado. I have an enduring love for psychiatry, a field that allows me to combine my fascination with the human mind with what I value most about medicine: the privilege of understanding people and making a meaningful difference in their lives.
I approach my patients with the same thoughtfulness and devotion I would want extended to my own family. My philosophy is rooted in clinical excellence, respect for human dignity, and the belief that exceptional care must be as individual as the person receiving it. I am committed to culturally responsive, gender-affirming medicine and to a collaborative approach in which patients are active participants in their treatment. Every recommendation I make is guided by careful clinical reasoning, open dialogue, and a sincere consideration of what matters most to the person sitting across from me.
The Hope Institute of Psychiatry is an expression of my love for this profession and my belief that medical expertise and genuine kindness belong together. I founded this practice to offer the kind of psychiatric care I believe every person deserves: sophisticated in its clinical approach, thoughtful in its decisions, and deeply human in its delivery.

Dr French is so authentic and caring, and tries to get to the root of the issue instead of just treating the symptoms. She knows the questions to ask to help me understand my progress and what I've accomplished. I feel so much more hopeful after each visit with her.

Dr. French is literallly the best medical provider I’ve had over the course of my adulthood. She has worked with me over the years to modify my treatment as needed, encouraged me when needed, and thoroughly explained all aspects from a science/medical perspective and emotional impact perspective. She is an amazing doctor and person!

Terrible and rude
January 4, 2023David K.Verified patient
I cannot recommend Dr. French enough. I’m not one to write reviews, but after countless failed years of different types of therapy and medications that only made things worse, Dr. French helped give me the tools to handle my depression and anxiety.
Her bedside manner is fantastic, I always feel heard, and can feel how much she loves to see her patients grow. As a woman who has often felt dismissed while seeking mental help, appointments with Dr. French feel entirely different than any of the dozen-or-so mental health professionals I’ve sought care from before.
Although there was a bit of a bump in the road regarding billing with Serenity, it was resolved in a reasonable amount of time, and I would go through it 100x to keep Dr. French as a mental health provider.

I was taken seriously and my Dr. genuinely cared about what I am going through. She acted quickly to get me in treatment that may have taken a while to schedule for.
