Get to Know Our Counselors

We aim to match each client with the provider who best fits their needs, preferences, and goals. Our team of providers is diverse in background, approach, and expertise, allowing us to support a wide range of client experiences. If you’re unsure which provider you'd like to work with, our team is here to guide you through the process and help you find the right fit. Please note that provider availability is always in flux, and while we do our best to accommodate preferences, we may occasionally offer alternative options based on current openings.

Bio

Welcome!

My name is Julia, and I use she/her pronouns. I work with kids, youth, families, caregivers and adults. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you in your change journey! In my therapy sessions, we may talk, play, draw, stretch, breathe, and fidget as needed. Whether this is your first time in a therapy space, or your 50th, I will honor the wisdom you already have about yourself (or your child). I am trauma informed and will work with you to create a place of calm and safety (with a dash of humor) so that together we may nurture growth and healing. I am experienced in supporting those with mood issues such as depression or anxiety, as well as processing trauma, grief and loss. Depending on the needs of my clients, I use a variety of modalities including Family Systems, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness, Narrative Therapy, DBT, and Play Therapy. I am a therapist who loves to get feedback from clients- in the future, if something I am doing isn’t working for you, let me know!
