Julia is a great therapist for someone who's very unsure if they should pick back up on doing therapy again and for others who haven't done therapy yet. She's very attentive and a wonderful listener. She has helped me see parts of my life in way I wouldn't have been able to on my own. I've felt seen, understood and heard. I know getting help is scary, but with Julia she makes it feel so safe to open up about even the heaviest of topics.

I’ve had therapy before but I never felt like I found the perfect fit until my first session last week. I’m so hopeful and grateful to have met her and have such a kind and intelligent therapist by my side.

Julia is the best therapist I have ever had, hands down. After being treated inappropriately by a previous therapist it took me years to return to therapy. I feel heard and safe.

Julia is really phenomenal and one of the best therapists I’ve ever had. She is very easy to talk to and be open with, even when it comes to the most private and difficult situations. She has a special way of building your self esteem while also telling you what you need to hear. When I first started working with her I was in the middle of the worst depressive episode I have had in over 20 years. I couldn’t have gotten through it without her help. That was one year ago and a lot of growth has happened in my life since then. I’m forever grateful for her!

She has helped me to do things that are not inmy normal comfort zone and really does everything to find out where trauma experience comes from and ways to cope

I have only been seeing Julia for a couple months and my life has already had so many upswings from it. It’s not like everything in my life stopped being crazy but more that she has already given me so much confidence and so many tools to work through those things that I don’t feel quite as unprepared. Knowing I have someone who is there to encourage me and celebrate my wins even when they feel small is so comforting. It’s refreshing to have someone tell you it’s okay, or rather important, to help yourself, believe in yourself and put yourself first and mean it. She is always positive and attentive and she never makes me feel out of place talking to her. 10/10 would always recommend.

Julia is a great guide. She listens deeply and offers new perspectives. She’s friendly, warm, caring and committed. It’s obvious she enjoys her work, and that energy is infectious. I always look forward to our calls.

I have been struggling with mental health and anxiety after a miscarriage and Julia has helped me so much! She is so understanding and caring. She takes the time to listen and really digs deep. She gives the tools to help me cope and deal with exactly I’m going through. I look forward to our sessions every week because I know we will dig deeper and I will leave with new knowledge of how to help myself. I have implemented the tools she has given me and I’m starting to feel so much better! I am so thankful I started therapy because through the ups and downs I have someone to talk to about every emotion. Julia has been there for me and is such a loving big hearted person. She makes time for our sessions even outside of her regular hours and is very responsive if I need her. When I am going through my daily life I can here her voice in my head guiding me through. I am really thankful for Julia and I can’t wait to continue to grow and get happier using therapy!

Julia has been a godsend to me. I have suffered many traumas in my life physical, sexual, and the rest she knows. I lost my youngest son February 3 of 2022 and I originally had started going to her for this grief I could tell immediate differences in my emotional health dealing with this group within the first two weeks. We have also touched on my past traumas in my childhood which she has helped tremendously in dealing with these. I will be forever grateful to have her in my life if my son still stands for anything it was to get his mother into therapy to improve her mental health. I love you Julia I will never forget you.

I've only had two conversations with Julia Mcgarry, but I'm looking forward to the third. I don't have experience with therapists and didn't know what to expect. Still don't really, but I found Julia to be intuitive and quickly understood--probably better than I do myself--what topics and conversations would be insightful and help me reach a quieter state.
