”Julie gets to the heart of my challenges and provides insights that guide me to dive deeper under the surface. She helps me to see and understand the patterns that I have adopted and how to recognize when I'm headed back down those same old paths. I have already learned so much about myself and the strategies I have employed since childhood to help me get my needs met - and how those thoughts/behaviors are no longer serving me.” Tara L

I have recommended Julie to countless other people as well as couples and they all agree that she is a blessing. Julie is true asset and I am grateful to trust and lean on her through these tough times”. Robyn

“My work with Julie has been the most transformative experience I've ever undergone. I wish I could send everyone I know to her. I went from slogging through life, spinning in a hopeless struggle of perfectionism-fueled self-doubt, to forging ahead confidently in my relationships, career, and larger life goals. Julie's impact is huge. Julie has a deft, deeply empathetic way of offering encouraging support yet acting as an honest, reliable sounding board. I appreciate how she weaves many different strategies, philosophies, and resources into our work. It's allowed us to craft a diverse toolbox to combat anything that comes my way.

When I first began therapy, a core struggle was confronting my tangled thoughts and emotions; Julie's gift is in unraveling my "mess" with masterful CBT and her uniquely insightful compassionate wisdom. Rich and illuminating communication underpins her work — the way she crafts similes and metaphors that hit the nail on the head of what I'm experiencing is unparalleled.

What I especially value is that Julie knows exactly when to comfort me and when to push. She's emboldened me to expand my comfort zone, challenge my limiting beliefs, or face my own BS. She is a trustworthy person to have in my (and your!) corner, and I am so grateful for our work.” Cristina S.

"Julie has been amazing at helping me navigate my challenges.  Her insights about cognitive development have helped me understand my child's behavior a lot better.  When my child was struggling with the fact that her father and I are divorced and live apart,  Julie's advice to "normalize our family" (with books and other examples), helped my child understand there are all types of families.  Besides my daughter's struggles, Julie provided the space that I needed to work through my own issues that were getting in the way of my happiness.  I'm so thankful to Julie and her insightful guidance and have grown so much in my work with her."

"..I sought Julie's support after speaking with several counselors and therapists. I was overwhelmed, exhausted and feeling like I wasn't a good mom, good spouse, good friend, etc... Julie provided the guidance, clarity, and caring support and therapy I needed to wade through choices, feel less anxiety, and less alone.  She brings her experience as a mom, school counselor, Marin resident and keen insights into our work. Her authenticity, care and problem solving skills make a difference. " Stephanie

"I'm so appreciative of Julie's skills as a therapist. She is a truly empathetic listener and has the ability to offer help and perspectives without judgment. She helped me through a particularly difficult situation and I felt relief because I actually felt understood. It helped me to look at the situation in a new light, and there, helped me to move forward." Pamela
