Reaching for help is such a brave thing to do, and is the key to starting to feeling a little better. I approach therapy by collaborating with you, my client, because you are the expert in your own lives. Whatever has brought you to this space you are in now, we can work together to create a plan for the healthiest and happiest life possible.

If you have tried everything to quit addictive eating and nothing seems to stick, it can be devastating. There IS hope! I have been in practice for 30 years. I specialize in helping people overcome addictive eating (compulsive overeating, bulimia, binge eating, emotional eating) and food/weight obsession. I also have extensive experience supporting people dealing with alcohol and drug addictions, codependency and family issues. I love to work with people at all levels of recovery. I use a physical, emotional and spiritual approach. Faith and spirituality is a strong part of my practice as I believe we need to change from the inside out.

You have good days and bad days. At times, the sadness and stress are overwhelming. Maybe someone important to you has died or you're struggling with a significant relationship or a life transition. Maybe others cannot relate to your loss & you're feeling very alone. You've landed here because you need to talk to someone about it. I specialize in grief and loss. Grief is a natural response to death & loss but this feels like a wilderness you have not explored before and you need some guidance. Are you interested in feeling less overwhelmed & more settled? You don't have to do this on your own.

I provide counseling services to individuals looking to reduce and manage symptoms of anxiety and depression, improve overall functioning, and receive support in facing life challenges. I strive to provide a safe, supportive and healing space for each of my clients. My treatment style has been described as calm, warm, empathic, authentic and nonjudgmental. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, my specialization is in the treatment of eating disorders, which includes experience through The Renfrew Center. I also specialize in trauma from working at HopeWorks in Maryland and I hold a Certificate in Advanced Trauma Treatment from The Ferentz Institute.

Have you lost heart? Are you feeling anxious, angry, guilty, embarrassed, or invisible? Are you haunted by a loss or trauma you thought you'd gotten past? Are you discouraged by your own or others' ideas about who, how, and where you ought to be at this time in your life? Are you hiding habits, shying away from help for fear of judgment? Do you feel uneasy in social situations? Do the news headlines leave you hopeless? Do you feel stuck and crave more meaning in work and relationships? Are you smiling for all and screaming inside? How you truly feel matters very much. Suffering is wisdom waiting; being with it changes everything.

Dr. Julie Benzaquen is a licensed clinical psychologist with expertise working with children, adolescents, and families. She works diligently with her clients to establish a strong therapeutic alliance with all members of the family, collaborating with them to develop new coping strategies and create positive changes in mood and behavior.

I work against the position that views human challenges through a narrow lens bound by diagnosis and pathology. In family therapy, I work with adolescents and their caregivers who are impacted by protracted conflict and disconnection. I work with couples who are caught in patterns of conflict, avoidance, and misunderstanding. Individual therapy places emphasis on the security and safety of the therapeutic relationship in order to create opportunities for change.

When our children hurt, we hurt. Teaching young children, adolescents and young adults coping skills that they will use for a lifetime is a wonderful gift for the entire family. Adult women experience a tremendous amount of stress. Habitual behaviors or ways of thinking that served us as children are often of no use and even harmful during adulthood. Feeling better requires challenging these old habits and creating new pathways to suit our current goals.

Therapy is a step-by-step process, and I am here to support and guide you. I work well with clients who are open to feedback and willing to work on their personal goals. I have experience working with clients in mental health and substance use outpatient settings, providing group, individual, and family therapy. I have worked with clients with mood disorders, anxiety, personality disorders, PTSD, trauma, recovery from substance use, as well as co-occurring disorders. I work with clients as a team in the therapeutic relationship to help clients achieve their goals in treatment.

You can feel free to share your life and whatever you are facing. This type of work creates deep and lasting change.

All people have the potential to change, grow and find meaning. Trauma and grief can interfere with this process and cause you to feel stuck. Many challenges that bring people into therapy (for example, relationship issues, depression and anxiety), have their roots in unresolved trauma and grief. As an EMDR therapist, I will help you identify these connections and activate your brain’s own natural ability to heal. EMDR goes beyond the insight sought in traditional talk therapy. By resolving the underlying issues contributing to your problems on a deep, emotional level, we will bring about significant and lasting change.

Working together in a non-judgemental, collaborative space we’ll help you build confidence, minimize stress and overcome fear, self-doubt, feeling stuck or overwhelmed.
