Everyone can live a more fulfilling life, although thoughts and feelings make it easy to get stuck. I believe therapy offers space to take a step back and do our best thinking about 'whats working well?' and 'whats not working well?', when it comes to thoughts, feelings, and relationships. I work with people experiencing a wide range of difficult thoughts, feelings, and situations such as: anxiety, low mood, relationship stress, and low motivation.

Hi, I’m Julia. I work with people aged 17 and above. I use anti-oppressive and non-pathologising frameworks to counselling, which means I work with you to explore how you make sense of your life and experiences. I am deeply informed by social justice and critical theory. I welcome all bodies, genders and identities, and work to problematise the privileges I hold as a cis woman. I collaborate with folks to create a space where people can befriend all parts of themselves and get a sense of their preferences and hopes. I approach counselling as a place for genuine connection, meaning-making and justice.

Existential therapy focuses on freedom, responsibility, and the meaning of life coupled with a mindfulness based approach to alleviate anxieties and fears while working towards integration and self-actualization. We all need a tailored therapy just for us, which is why sessions are never limited by one approach. I also take inspiration from the psychoanalytic tradition through Horney and Kernberg as well as my foundational practice in CBT and ACT.
