My biggest concern with starting therapy was how formal it would feel. Julia had a good balance between casual and formal, that I know i can talk to her, but I can still see her as my therapist. Her presence is calm and comforting, allowing you to feel safe in your thoughts.

Julia has been my therapist for about a year now, and I feel like I’ve known her forever. She is a great listener, positive, and offers me honest advice, feedback, and solutions for everything I bring to her attention. She has also suggested observations to me that I’ve never considered about myself, which has been helpful in my journey to be a better person. Thank you, Julia!

Written on Jan 30, 2025 after therapy with Julia for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and self esteem
Sometimes you just need someone to listen and vent to without judgement. Her method of helping me infuse my coping skills with my own spiritual, moral compass to resolve my environmental and internal issues is a game changer on days I struggle to find those answers on my own. I average video chatting with her once a week but catch myself reflecting on her words and guidance toward possible solutions throughout the week. Sometimes even if you are independent and intelligent you need another educated unbiased viewpoint to keep your emotional balance within range. Don’t worry…..
she also is prepared for those video chats that are off kilter to your norm. She understands we all have our breaking points and she may be placed right in the middle of the meltdown.
Let go and let her be witness to it versus an unexpecting friend or family member that can offer comfort but rarely has the expertise to get you back to your base point without getting emotionally involved and inserting their personal bias. Go for it! and request Julia during your initial therapy application process. It will be a positive step to one of the best decisions you will make involving your personal health and well being this year!
