I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts with over two decades of clinical experience supporting individuals and couples through life’s challenges. I earned my Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling and Marriage & Family Therapy from Cambridge College in 2002, and since then have worked across a wide range of clinical and academic settings. My professional background includes private practice, where I provide individual and couples counseling, as well as crisis work in hospital Emergency Departments. I have also served as an adjunct faculty member at both community colleges and four-year institutions in the Greater Boston area, teaching undergraduate courses in Psychology and Human Services, including Crisis Intervention, Counseling Practice and Policy, Research Methods, and Personality Psychology. I approach therapy with genuine care, curiosity, and respect. I tend to become deeply invested in my clients’ emotional well-being and believe that meaningful change happens within a safe, collaborative, and trusting therapeutic relationship. My style is primarily solution-focused and practical, while still allowing space to explore deeper emotional patterns at a pace that feels right for you. I understand that discussing sensitive topics—such as intimacy, sexuality, identity, or personal struggles—can feel vulnerable. I strive to create a nonjudgmental, affirming environment where clients feel comfortable being open and honest, knowing they will be met with understanding and professionalism. I enjoy working with adults from diverse backgrounds and life experiences, including those navigating men’s health concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, LGBTQ+ identity and sexuality, compulsive behaviors (including pornography use), immigration-related stressors, and the emotional impact of cancer and serious illness. My goal is to support you in feeling empowered, grounded, and better equipped to move forward with clarity and confidence. In addition to English, I am fluent in Arabic (Lebanese dialect), which allows me to provide culturally responsive care to clients who prefer therapy in their native language.

Throughout my career, I have actively engaged with individuals across various age groups, including children, adolescents, and adults, while also conducting evaluations and investigations for the Juvenile Courts.

When working with clients, I adopt a person-centered approach that combines various treatment methodologies, tailored to meet the unique needs and concerns of each individual. Drawing on my training, I integrate elements of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) into my practice. By utilizing evidence-based techniques from these approaches, I assist clients in developing practical strategies to navigate challenges, manage emotions, and foster positive change in their lives. Through a collaborative and empowering process, I work with my clients to develop personalized plans that align with their goals and aspirations.

I strongly believe that we have within us what we need to heal ourselves from the emotional pain experienced in pasts and presents, and grow as we become our better selves. I also believe that change comes from the power of the therapeutic alliance: working together to improve your life and circumstances, as much as my skills and your innate strengths.

Hey there, my name is Julia and I earned my LICSW (Licensed Independent Social Worker) degree 16 years ago in Massachusetts. I have experience in helping clients (mainly young adults) with stress, anxiety, depression, coping with life changes as well as motivation, self esteem and confidence. I want to acknowledge and honor your efforts to reach out for support. I agree that you deserve it and I’m glad you know you don’t have to continue feeling this way. If you’re looking for a genuinely warm, collaborative and structured therapist, I may be a great fit for you as you work towards your goals. I’m trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) so I work with clients to identify negative/unhelpful thoughts that contribute to negative and overwhelming emotions. Together, we will work to unlearn those thoughts and beliefs, and replace them with more reality-based and helpful thoughts and beliefs. Over time, you will feel more in control and experience an improved mood overall. I carry a lot of hope for my clients and see progress towards their goals especially when they are able to continue the work outside of therapy sessions. Thus, in an effort to set you up for a better week in between our sessions, each time we meet we’ll determine together what action steps will get you closer towards your goals between sessions as well. Additionally, I am available to message between sessions and I will typically follow up with clients within 24 hours. If you’re ready to partner with a therapist who will be supportive and encouraging during this difficult and important work, I encourage you to schedule a video session so we can begin our work together and you can start feeling better- as you need and deserve. ***I want to note that I do not specialize in treating substance misuse and/or suicidal thoughts. Thus, if you have ever struggled with substance misuse and/or ever had any suicidal thoughts, I encourage you to to connect with a therapist who has an area of expertise to provide you with the highest quality support that you deserve. Also, my therapeutic training typically doesn't align with a handful of sessions that EAP provides. Lastly, I do not provide court-ordered therapy.***
