As a licensed marriage and family therapist, Julie has extensive experience supporting older adolescents and adults navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, relational conflict, and neurodiversity, as well as older adults facing grief and loss through hospice care. Julie views therapy as a collaborative journey, where she and her clients work together to foster self-discovery, healing, and meaningful growth. She uses an integrative and strengths-based approach, while striving to create a safe, supportive, and compassionate space where her clients can feel seen, heard, and understood. She is intentional, attentive, and responsive to her clients’ unique needs, meeting them where they are and honoring their individual pace and experiences.

Julie believes in the power of language, authentic connection, attuning to the somatic experience, and exploring alternative narratives that help illuminate her clients’ strengths, inspire new perspectives, and enhance their sense of agency. Her work is grounded in cultural humility and an appreciation for the many influences that shape her clients’ lives, including relationships, family systems, community, and broader social contexts.

Throughout the therapeutic process, Julie takes a holistic stance that values the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, helping her clients nurture a deeper connection with themselves and others. Julie aims to cultivate resilience, self-compassion, balance, peace, and self-trust, empowering her clients to reconnect with hope and move toward a greater sense of fulfillment.
