Providing radically healing psychological services
About Me
I am Bryana French, a licensed psychologist, professor, and leader from the Twin Cities of Minnesota. I earned my PhD in Counseling Psychology from the University of Illinois and am a full-time faculty member at the University of St. Thomas.
I have a small one-day-a-week private practice where I see adult clients for psychotherapy. I also provide professional development training and consultation for diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. I have a passion for helping people heal from racial and sexual trauma.
