Your past still haunts you.

You can’t stop thinking about it, but the anxiety and terror are just as intense as when it first happened.

So much has changed since then, but it’s always there… in the background… just waiting…

Every time you think you may finally be getting past it, something happens to remind you of just how little progress you’ve made.

Will the pain ever go away?

You wake up in the middle of the night, sweating and heart pounding from another nightmare.

Crying out of nowhere. Always tense and on edge, looking over your shoulder for some potential threat.

You’re irritable all the time, frequently exploding in anger without warning.

It’s affecting your relationships.

You and your spouse are drifting apart as they get increasingly frustrated by your mood swings.

Friends tell you to “just get over it,” but that just proves how little they understand what you’re going through.

It seems like no matter how much you try to support everyone else, no one is ever there to support you. And every day, you become lonelier and more isolated.

Getting things done feels impossible.

You can’t concentrate on any task without your mind wandering.

Jobs never last more than a few months before you lose interest and motivation.

Your house is a mess, and you’re constantly overwhelmed by responsibilities.

You decide there’s something wrong with you.

“Why am I such a loser?” you worry. “Why is everything so much harder for me than everyone else?”

People tell you you’re lazy. Is it true? You don’t feel lazy, but it’s hard to argue with the results.

You attempt to make up for your shortcomings by spending all your energy trying to help others. And then feel guilty whenever you think about taking some time for yourself.

Something needs to change.

If nothing changes, what will your life look like next week? Next year? In ten years?

It seems more than likely you’ll continue sliding down this slope into further despair, isolation, and hopelessness.

What does that mean for you, your future, and the people you love?

There is another way.

It’s time to discover that you ARE important.

Your thoughts and feelings DO count.

And you have the strength and resilience to THRIVE.

Let therapy teach you how to make your brain and body work for you to become the person you’ve always wanted to be.

You have the power to positively impact not just yourself but all the people around you.

And I can help

Hi, I’m Julie.

For over 30 years, I’ve helped people heal the scars of their past and the wounds of today.

I know how hard it can be just to reach out for help, let alone actually do the work to achieve happiness. But you’ve already taken that first step by being here today.

Going through therapy is a challenging, unique, frustrating, exhilarating experience with many ups and downs. But in the end, you’ll have created a “you” that you can respect, cherish, and nurture.

In a safe space, we’ll get to the root cause of your issues and help you move to a place of compassion and acceptance so you can finally find freedom from the pain of your past.

Using clinically proven strengths-based techniques combined with lessons from my own personal journey, I’ll help you grow to become your very best self as you move through this thing we call “life.”
