Getting to know Shannon French

Hi there, I'm Shannon! I'm a fully licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with seven years of clinical experience working with children, adults, and families. My personal experiences have enriched my journey and enhanced my ability to connect with and support my clients effectively. In my practice, I focus on areas such as anxiety. My focus As a licensed clinical social worker, I have a wide range of experience helping individuals and families work through a range of emotional and psychological challenges. I excel at helping people work through their anxiety, depression, and trauma. I also work with those going through major life transitions. I'm an empathetic and effective therapist My approach My greatest strength as a provider is my humanistic and strength based approach within our therapeutic alliance. At our core, I believe that all people possess an innate ability to overcome their own challenges. My approach to therapy is deeply rooted in humanistic principles, which center you as the expert in your own life. My communication style I believe healing happens through connection. I communicate with empathy, authenticity, and respect, creating a safe space where clients can explore challenges, build on strengths, and move toward their goals at a pace that feels comfortable. My journey to mental healthcare I was drawn to this profession through a combination of personal experiences and a desire to help others. I believe everyone deserves a safe, supportive space to heal and grow. Life has taught me the value of resilience, compassion, and support during difficult times, and those lessons continue to shape how I connect with and support my clients. My goals for you I partner with clients to create goals that feel meaningful, realistic, and achievable. Together, we identify strengths, develop practical strategies, track progress, and make adjustments as needed to help clients build confidence and create lasting positive change.
