Too many women have sat in a provider’s office and walked out feeling unseen. I built my practice to be the opposite. Most providers will treat your diagnosis and not work alongside you in your daily life. I’m Julia Johnson, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in women’s mental health, perinatal and postpartum care, and trauma-informed psychiatric treatment. Women’s mental health deserves more than a rushed appointment and a prescription. It deserves time, nuance, and a provider who actually knows the difference between burnout and depression, postpartum anxiety and just being a new mom!

You might be exhausted from carrying anxiety, depression, mood swings, ADHD symptoms, trauma, or substance use concerns on your own. Maybe you’ve been trying to hold everything together for your family or at work, but inside you feel overwhelmed or stuck. Perhaps you’ve tried to “push through,” but symptoms are affecting your daily life. You want relief, clarity, and a plan that truly fits you. More than anything, you want a provider who listens carefully, explains things in a way that makes sense, and goes beyond prescribing to really see you.

Have you been blaming yourself for the actions, behaviors or even the emotions of other people around you? You may be feeling like everything is your fault, like you are just not good enough. You feel as though your worth is only based on how you perform in school or at work, the way you look, or how much you do for others rather than WHO you are? Maybe thinking that if you’re perfect everything will be OK, having the perfect body, being the perfect student, employee, partner, friend, child or parent. If you’re perfect you won’t hurt anymore, won’t be lonely anymore, won’t be afraid anymore.
