I believe that everyone deserves to feel connected, to be understood and feel worthy of abundance and love. Who we are has purpose-it has value. Opportunities for growth are all around us and it is up to us harness the role of the hero in our own personal stories. I offer a warm space where you can contemplate what is meaningful to you and to process through past narratives/traumas and core beliefs that hinder your ability to create a life that you love.
I have had incredible opportunities working with adults, children, teens and the elderly in various settings as a clinician. I utilize a strength-based, mindfulness and solution-focused approach to therapy. I am also versed in the framework of astrology as a tool for self-understanding for those that are interested in this modality.
We all possess the ability to improve the quality of relationships that we have with the world and most importantly the relationship that we have with our selves. I would love to connect with you if you are looking for a heart-centered therapist to support you on your journey developing strength, self-worth, and resilience.

Julie has been fantastic. She's very approachable and easy to talk to. Her experience has been helpful. I like that I can just ask her questions and she can explain things in a very relatable way. I am very much enjoying my sessions with her and finding them useful.

This has been my first experience with therapy and I could not be happier with having Julie as my therapist. She creates such a comfortable and supportive environment for me to share my thoughts. For someone like myself who finds it difficult to express myself I’ve found myself looking forward to our sessions which is something I would have never thought going into it.

Julie is the first person I feel like I’ve been able to be completely honest with and I finally feel like I have found a safe space to heal. I don’t talk to anyone, no one knows the real me but I think Julie might be the first one to make me feel like it’s okay to show and talk about the real me.
Julie has inspired me to create a better life for myself and for others.
