I am a psychologist with over thirty years experience treating childhood disorders. My experience has been that early childhood therapy and parent-training are most effective, and emotional healing occurs most readily, when parent and child are seen together. Focus during, and between sessions, involves teaching of play skills and modeling of effective limit setting. For older children, self modulation of behavior is a primary objective. Utilizing these techniques, I have successfully treated anxiety problems (such as selective mutism), depressive symptoms, and developmental disorders (such as Aspergers Syndrome).

You struggle building friendships. Maybe it's because you have ADHD, Autism, or another social learning difference, or perhaps your anxiety just gets in the way. You feel that when you're interacting, things seem awkward. You realize that after a conversation, you think about what you just said, and it repeatedly plays in your mind. Your parents are stumped on how to help you. They've tried everything from workbooks to making you try out for a team or activity you hate! You're constantly feeling like you're on the verge of losing control. You wish you knew how to make connections, but the truth is, it's hard, and you don't know how.

Welcome! My name is Julia I am a LMSW, but I want you to know that what you will find is I am more than a mental health professional. I approach my work in a holistic way. What I personally mean by this is, we can’t just address the mind when healing or working on balancing ourselves. We have to take a look at all that we do, which includes what we eat, how we exercise, our daily habits, what information we consume, and our relationships. With this being said, I provide not only talk therapy, but individual yoga sessions if the client feels this would be beneficial to their healing process.

Self-care looks different for everyone, and it is important to find what you need and enjoy. It may take trial and error to discover what works best for you. Although self-care is not a cure for mental illnesses, understanding what causes or triggers your symptoms and what coping techniques work for you can help manage your mental health. I provide my clients with a supportive, trusting environment that allows for them to develop the necessary tools for change while enhancing their sense of self-worth.
