Hi! I’m Julie Luce, the founder of Calm As You Are. I started my private practice after witnessing the challenges of burnout and high turnover in community mental health setting, which often disrupt the consistency needed for clients to feel safe and supported. My passion is providing youth and families with steady, compassionate, and high-quality mental health support in a warm and welcoming environment. I believe that everyone deserves a safe space to feel seen, understood, and accepted exactly as they are. I specialize in working with clients between the ages of 4 and 18.
At the heart of my work is the therapeutic relationship itself. I believe that meaningful change begins with connection. My approach is grounded in relational therapy, where trust, collaboration, and emotional safety guide the process. I strive to make therapy engaging, approachable, and effective, tailoring each session to the unique needs of each client.
I know reaching out for support can feel really vulnerable, but that’s exactly why I’m here. Being a therapist isn’t just my job- it’s my passion and purpose. I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they grow, heal, and find their sense of calm and connection again. Please feel free to reach out via text, call, or email to get started!
