How Julia can Help:

Reaching out for help can feel scary and although I am a therapist, I know this because I am human too! I am an empathetic and attentive listener who strives to make my clients feel at home. I apply an integrative and client-centered approach, tailored to meet individualized needs and goals. While I utilize a variety of techniques and modalities, developing a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship is my primary value as a practitioner. Everybody deserves to live a meaningful and fulfilling life, and together we can develop goals and tools to make that happen!
