Let’s Explore the “whys” behind your behaviors…
I’m here to help you become your most authentic self and learn to love that version of yourself. Many of our undesirable behaviors are learned trauma responses from past events. Together, we’ll find the most effective way for you to move forward from past traumas that may be holding you back.
Hello! I’m Julia.. She / Her- English, Spanish, Armenian, Portuguese…
I work with adolescents, young adults, and those who struggle with regulating their emotions and turn to the use of self-harm, substance use, eating disorders, or other maladaptive behaviors in an attempt to manage these intense emotions. My approach is eclectic and tailored to each individual’s needs. However, I draw primarily from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other mindfulness-based treatments. I provide a safe and compassionate space for you to explore the “why” behind your behaviors, and we will work collaboratively to find new ways of processing your emotions.
A solid therapeutic relationship is, by far, the most significant predictor of success in therapy. If you’re interested in working with me, reach out to me here for a free 15 min consultation to see if we would be a good fit! I would love to get to know you more so you don't have to navigate this alone.
I speak Portuguese, Armenian, and Spanish!
