If you're looking for a sign that it's time to change, this is it!
|
Every day I talk with people who tell me they have been wanting to come to therapy for months (or even YEARS!) and they just kept putting it off! There is never enough time, never enough of a reason why, and they want to be able to figure things out on their own.
I understand that desire. Really- I do. But you should not have to do it alone! You don't get a gold star in life for doing it without help. Avoiding your healing only means wasting time not living free- Not living life being the person you know you were created to be! |
It's normal to be nervous about starting therapy! A message from Julie |
You don't have to put it off one more day. Let's get started!
Begin Your Journey to Self-Discovery and Healing
Therapy offers a compassionate space to explore your emotions, heal old wounds, and cultivate resilience. It's a pathway to understanding yourself, nurturing your mental well-being, and finding strength in vulnerability. At some point, we all need a helping hand, and therapy is there to guide you on your journey to a happier, healthier you.
Coming to therapy isn't about you being broken, it is about making sure life doesn't break you.
Therapy is for Everyone
The average client I work with is successful, resilient, and extremely brave, although they usually don't see themselves that way on Day One. They would probably use words more like overwhelmed, stretched too thin, and anxious to the point of barely functioning. These are women and men just like you, reaching out because they know there has to be more to life than what they are getting, and they are tired of being stuck in the cycle of no change.
Whether you are noticing your motivation and energy at an all time low, or your anxiety and negative self-talk at an all time high, therapy can help!

Renew Your Mind, Reclaim Your Life: Healing Your Mental Health
There is a saying, “Most people in therapy are there because of someone who refuses to go.” There is a lot of truth to this! The majority of my clients are working through issues that they didn't necessarily create themselves, but they are paying the price. Here are some of the most common reasons people reach out for help:
-Toxic work (or college) environments with unrealistic demands, causing burnout
-Parenting and co-parenting stressors
-Marriage and relationship issues
-Feelings of never being good enough, worthlessness, or fears of abandonment
-Unprocessed grief
-History of trauma, neglect, or emotionally unavailable parents (often times still having to interact with these very people)
Or maybe a particular symptom prompted them to reach out:
-Anxiety has increased
-Motivation and energy has dwindled
-A general feeling of disconnectedness from life
-Negative self-talk has become so constant that it is crippling
If you are noticing any of these things, know that you are not alone. There is hope for change!

I don’t give advice
I believe you know yourself and what's best for you better than any professional ever could. I want to help you learn to trust yourself again! I will never tell you what's best for you, however... |
However, I don’t leave you to figure it out alone I’m a very engaged therapist, which means I will challenge you and help you connect dots that you may never have even considered are important. I won't just sit in silence the whole session. I like to think of us as partners. |
|
I dig deep! While we will always go at your pace, I don’t encourage staying on the surface during therapy. I think it’s a waste of your time and money. Healing happens when you safely face the hard stuff. But with that being said... |
I don’t believe therapy should be retraumatizing Many people avoid therapy out of fear (possibly from bad experiences with therapy in the past, and I get that). There are ways to face the past without retraumatizing your system and I strive to help you find that balance so that it feels like relief rather than pain all over again. |
