As a fellow person with ADHD, I understand the challenges associated with day-to-day life and trying to function in a world full of people who seem able to do it easier than you. I'll help you gain the skills for planning, organization, time management, problem solving, mental flexibility, working memory, emotional regulation, self-awareness, and self-control. All of this will help you tackle activities of daily life, like folding laundry, starting work tasks, completing tasks more efficiently, growing your confidence, and setting and meeting new goals. I work with high school-, college-, and adult-aged individuals.

At some point, the tools that we use to get through life can begin to fall short. Your reasons for considering therapy may be clearly or barely understood. You’d like to experience more agency and acceptance, make better sense of your life, and relate more honestly to the people that matter to you. If you’ve come looking for help with your partner, there is both a critical need and a deeply-seeded desire for things to improve between you, and the time has come for to invest in that outcome. You are struggling to function in your current phase of life, whether anew or for a long time now.

There is no reason to delay... a better life is yours for the making! If you are thinking of coming to therapy there is probably at least a small part of you that knows things could be better in your life. I specialize in helping you articulate what is getting in the way and moving to where you want to be. The specific challenge may be a relationship that isn't working, a pattern of behavior, a way of treating yourself or other issue. I am easy to talk to and highly interactive.

Is everyday a parenting struggle and everything a battle? Considering medication but would love an alternative that works? I offer two evidenced-based therapies, one for parents/ one for children.

Life has many challenges, it's how you grow from your past that defines who you are in life. You may feel alone, misunderstood, and unfulfilled with your life or personal relationships. Perhaps you're having intense negative emotions. People typically enter therapy when they are in distress, although it's usually the long-term and underlying struggles that concern them the most. Initially, we will work quickly to address your immediate pain and provide relief. As therapy progresses, our focus may shift so you develop more positive and enriching relationships with yourself and others.

My goal is to combine my compassionate approach with evidence-based methods which I tailor to each individual.

Most importantly, I always meet each client exactly where they are on their journey.

Hi, I am Dr Julia, director of Creative Therapies. Over thirty years I have developed and fine-tuned a unique, whole-child approach to child therapy. After your consultation, initial parent intake and goal setting, your child will enter therapy. Whether your child plays, draws, or talks, the challenges will present for healing, usually in the very first session, and often different from what the parents identified. Your child will play, resolve and master challenges. While unlike traditional child therapy you participate in weekly phone discussions, receive assignments, techniques and answers to your questions and concerns.
