I am Julie Lerner, a Licensed Psychotherapist with over 10 years of clinical experience offering in-person weekly sessions to adults ages 25–65. I specialize in working with folks navigating gender identity, sexuality, trauma, anxiety, and depression. I am especially passionate about supporting LGBTQ+ individuals and providing an affirming, inclusive, and culturally responsive therapeutic space. I have had the privilege of working with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds and intersectional identities with a wide range of lived experiences, diagnoses, sexual orientations, and gender identities.
My work is grounded in Humanistic and Existential Theories and integrates Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Solution-Focused Therapy, DBT, and CBT. I offer a collaborative, trauma-informed approach that is tailored to each person. Clients often describe my style as warm, grounded, and gently direct.
I aim to create a space where you can slow down, show up as you are, and feel supported in making sense of what feels difficult or unclear. Therapy with me is collaborative and steady, and I strive to meet you with care as we work through what brings you in. I would be honored to work with you if it feels like a good fit.
