I believe that one of the most important factors for most people is to feel understood and heard. As a MFT and a LPCC working with individuals, couples and adolescents, I provide a safe and trusting environment. I take into account that everyone is different and comes from a different background involving it's own issues and your perception of it. I have been trained in many evidenced-based practices and have been in practice since 2007. I am bilingual in Spanish and I will provide treatment to help you make sense of the feelings and behaviors that you are experiencing and have had throughout your life. Using family systems, cognitive behavioral and other techniques as needed at any given time in your treatment. I employ active listening, interacting with you and inquiring you to share as a way to sort through your emotions, and behaviors in their present and past context. As a result you can gain more insight and a better understanding of you emotions and behaviors. In working together in a committed fashion, I am eager to guide you to your desired change and personal growth for the future.

Julia is very personable and down to earth. She listens and provides me a different way of seeing things. She's easy to talk to.

Julia is a phenomenal therapist. She really takes the time to listen, acknowledges your needs, and provides support. I feel comfortable talking with her and sharing my personal struggles. I look forward to speaking with her each week. She is very supportive and cares for her clients. I highly recommend her to anyone searching for a therapist.

Julia helped me through a difficult transition in life. She was quick to get back to me and made me feel like I was talking with a wise friend instead of someone who was judging me. I appreciate her so much I bought a friend a subscription as a gift.

Julia is very attentive, on time, and clear with options and days available for talking with her. I experienced counseling with her for over a year, and can definitely say my life is changed and am lots better now than before I started. I can move forward! She provided much help, insight, and advice. I'm grateful for her patience and honesty to my many worried questions over the years. I would definitely recommend Julia, she has been a wonderful blessing, friend, and mentor along the way. Thank you for your guidance.

Julia is great

I am very thankful for the short time I was able to talk to Julia about my daily troubles since shortly after being hit by a car almost 5 weeks ago. She understood my concerns, fears, anxiety, and she encouraged me. She also let me get to know a couple of things about her and showed interest in who I am and getting to know me. I did not expect that and I really liked it because it made me feel like she actually cared. I wish it were not the law that we cannot stay in touch as friends because I bet she would make a really good friend. I can say for certain that she is an excellent counselor and genuinely cares about her clients. And she makes sure you understand how the relationship/sessions will work upfront before beginning. If given an opportunity by God (and being aware of it), I would recommend specifically Julia to anyone in need of counseling and cannot afford one in person, but could afford at least a week or month with Julia. I would like to thank Faithful Counseling for the free week and then discounted week, and even more so for connecting me with Julia based on my needs when I inquired about sessions. One final thing: Julia responds quickly, and more than once she responded more than one time when I needed it within the same day. Thank you, and God bless!

Love Julia. She helped me get through a rough break up, she helped me kick my addiction, and get out of my depression. I am eternally grateful.

I love working with Julia, she's so smart and proactive, and her approach always keeps me thinking and by answering her questions I can exhaust all the avenues of a problem I need to solve. She provides me with lists of important things to read for further understanding, guides me through online exercises of discovery, etc. I'm sure there is more to say like she's kind, empathetic, and much more.

Julia Gunderson has really changed my view on therapy, I never was fond of the option. But she made me feel comfortable and safe from the start. She explained all I needed to know, made me feel at ease. She then helped me find ways of breaking down my problems, working on each of them one day at a time. Her advice and help has changed my life. I feel like a stronger and better person because of her. Would recommend to anyone.

I have been seeing Julia for a few weeks now and she is really awesome! Her messages are always full of support and understanding and added guidance to help you be your best self not only you but your loved ones. I feel supported and understand it makes it that much easier to talk to her so glad I have a great counselor it makes a huge difference.

Julia was a tremendous help, it was like night and day! Strangers no longer give me crippling anxiety & I feel like myself again. She showed me that small steps will lead to big changes. I will be recommending her to everyone I know that is having a hard time dealing with the stress. Thank you Julia for deciding to be a counselor, you've truly found your calling!

She is gifted at what she does. She gave me the coping skills I needed to deal with things better. At first, I was embarrassed to share my story, but she was very professional and made me feel comfortable. I opened up more than I thought I would. Julia is amazing!
