***Evening appointments available*** We all experience times in our lives when we need someone to talk to, someone to listen, someone to help us see things from a different perspective. Whether it’s times of sadness, feeling overwhelmed, or simply finding ourselves at a crossroads, these situations can leave us feeling uncertain about how to move forward successfully in life. For more than fifteen years, I have been helping people to change their lives by increasing their understanding of themselves and the people around them.

You deserve a life that feels good. We know that even good relationships can get stuck in unhealthy patterns. Do you find that when you are trying to connect with your partner you end up in a cycle of communication that's not helpful or productive? Do you retreat and silence it until next time? There is always next time… Maybe this time they will understand…we become louder in hopes they see how hurt we are. The more we aren't seen and heard the more resentful we become. The explosions become more significant and the intimacy ceases, now you are just resentful roommates.—It doesn’t have to be this way.

Understanding your experiences & emotions is the gateway to change. I believe people can change, even when they struggle to believe that they can. I strive to help clients learn new skills, or enhance those they are already using, in order to improve all areas of their lives. Imagine how differently you might feel if you could overcome the obstacles that keep you feeling stuck in your life & relationships.

I specialize in treating individuals & couples with depression, anxiety, sexual health & relationship issues, trauma, and other life challenges.

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.

I am currently accepting new clients. I am a therapist with a passion for helping individuals navigate their unique journeys towards healing and self-discovery. Specializing in trauma, I incorporate evidence-based approaches such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and IFS (Internal Family Systems) to create a supportive and empowering therapeutic space. Additionally, my expertise extends to areas of disordered eating and body image concerns.

I like to focus on helping people to find their passion in life. My holistic approach can help to relieve your uneasiness, fears, and problems in order to live a healthier, more satisfying life every single day. I specialize in hypnotherapy, Mindfulness practice, CBT, and EFT to eliminate negative beliefs and capitalize on strengths to help you achieve your goals. I believe that thoughts and emotions have a direct impact on your physical and emotional wellness. Anxiety, stress, and internal conflict can negatively affect your health and overall physical state which can effect how you enjoy your life.

My 25+ years of experience includes working with survivors of trauma and violence; intimate partner violence; depression; anxiety and panic; stress management; individuals with histories in foster care; infertility; and parenting- particularly single parenting. The foundation of my practice are trauma-informed and psychodynamic approaches, and I have pursued additional training in solution-focused techniques, hypnotherapy, mindfulness, meditation, and cognitive behavioral therapy.

As a person who has been challenged by my own anxiety issues and sought help and insight through counseling, I understand that it often takes more than just knowing your "story" to create effective and lasting change. I discovered hypnotherapy as a "last resort" and within eight sessions my general anxiety decreased and my fear of flying all but disappeared. I believe the key to that kind of change comes from an openness to possibilities and a readiness to let go of old thought patterns and beliefs that no longer serve you.,

I help you break the cycle of stress, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and burnout while transforming your life into vitality, health, and well-being.
