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!
