Our life's work is helping clients achieve a better sense of self and happiness...more recently we've recognized that without good mental health providers, finding this balance in life can be more difficult and stressful. As a result, we tend toward an Integrative approach and help our clients transform into the people they want to be. We see each client as an individual with many parts to their identity. Utilizing a holistic and systemic approach we help clients reintegrate the parts of themselves to function better as individuals and within their systems. Our focus tends toward a systems based approach using behavior methods.

Life transitions can be overwhelming. New beginnings, new diagnoses, and endings often create feelings of uncertainty and fear. There are a lot of practical things to attend to, of course, but the mental and emotional load of managing it all can feel isolating and scary without support. Whether you are a caregiver, a person dealing with health challenges yourself, or someone just struggling to manage general life stress, counseling support can help lighten the load you're carrying. It's not necessary to keep struggling on your own or trying to piece things together yourself without an experienced guide.

I appreciate that you have made a choice to find a therapist with whom you would like to work. It is a crucial step that may have taken a great deal of deliberation. It is no easy feat to work with another in addressing past traumas, suffering, loss, pain, isolation, or the myriad of difficulties and stressors one may incur as a result of the human condition, though forging a story that is uniquely yours to transcend the hardships you have overcome takes tremendous strength and courage. I hope that you consider working with me in pursuing a path that leads towards self actualization, as it is profoundly rewarding and enriching.

Reaching out for help in our most vulnerable moments can be overwhelming and scary. Sometimes our self talk convinces us that we should figure it out on our own, or that our problems aren’t as bad as they could be - and we find ourselves hesitant to make that next step. I will meet your bravery and vulnerability with compassion, curiosity, feeling, and a bit of humor. I want to center what matters to you, develop skills and abilities, and help you rediscover a fullness in being alive and in your body. My areas of experience include working with individuals of the LBGTQ+, and navigating barriers to receiving gender affirming care.

I enjoy working with all my clients. I work with children, adolescents, and adults with a myriad of issues. I have a particular expertise and understanding working with trauma issues. I have 15 years of police experience that allows me to better understand the needs of the service professionals (police, fire, nurses, military, etc.) clients and their families and how best to help them in a compassionate and caring way. The needs of these individuals can be unique. From substance abuse and anger control to depression and suicidal ideation, the stressors of these individuals require an understanding and knowledge, which I have.

Hi, I'm Julianna, and I work with both teens and adults! I believe that everyone has a unique story and I acknowledge that beginning therapy can feel intimidating and even scary. I approach therapy with a collaborative mindset, free of judgement, and built on mutual respect and trust. I value a therapeutic environment where one is free to be their authentic self. I value a focus on solutions, offering guidance and unconditional support, while simultaneously acknowledging that you are the expert of your own life.

Life is messy. That’s the motto I adopted a few years ago to remind myself that there is no such thing as perfect and rarely does everything go according to plan. My journey has taken me through a variety of messes…divorce, single parenting, job changes, remarriage and the blending of families, just to name a few. Although this isn’t the path that I planned to take, I am thankful for each step because of the healing and growth that accompanied it and ultimately led me to pursue my master’s degree in family and marriage therapy.

I believe that for therapy to be successful there must be a strong therapeutic relationship, one where trust and safety are established, and I understand that it can take some time to build that type of relationship. I provide each client with a warm, nonjudgmental environment where trust and safety are more likely to occur. I believe that we do our best healing when we are ready for it and have the desire to change whatever is no longer serving us. I also believe that we must laugh at ourselves at times, if not often, and I see humor as an important part of therapy and life.
