Rate Elva 'Julia' Garafola

So far Julia has been so great!! She knows exactly where to take the conversation and her experience really shows. From someone hesitant to therapy she has made me feel so comfortable in only 3 visits.

She really listened and made me feel like I was being heard. I look forward to working more with her in the future

Happy to find a therapist that has life experience to understand and has knowledge to help me move forward.

I feel so comfortable with Julia. I received the perfect balance in our sessions. Her listening and understanding, then suggesting. I had to discontinue due to financial hardship but suffered w/o her. Now, thankfully I get her again. A new start. A new chapter!

I have only had one session with Julia so far but I knew immediately that we were a good fit. We had some similarities that she was open to sharing with me, that really led me to feel comfortable. She encouraged me to journal in the BetterHelp app between our sessions and when she is free, she reads my journal entries and thoughtfully responds to them. I am very excited to continue meeting with her moving forward.

I have so enjoyed my time with Julia. She makes me feel hopeful and has great suggestions to help with things I am wanting to focus on. She is awesome!

Julia has/is helping me discover a path in this season of my life that rings with truth and wisdom. She is helping me find myself again. I appreciate her so much.

I've only had one session at this time. The only thing I can really comments is that Mrs Garafola is a good listener, very professional and empathetic.

She is great!

I appreciate how she helps me determine what is best for me.

Julia has helped me so much. I truly used to be an emotional mess and I do not feel that way anymore. I thought I would be in therapy for at least a year, and Julia helped me work through major issues I had been struggling with in the span of three months. After each session, I felt better and better. I can truly say I am in my best mental health that I have felt in a decade...all thanks to Julia! If you are looking for a true professional who will help your with you problems quickly, I highly recommend Julia.

She’s amazing! Changed my life in a short period of time!

Julia is kind caring and empathetic and also able to let me know what is working for me and what isn't. She asks a lot of questions which makes me feel like she cares and is engaged in what I am communicating to her. I am excited about the future and getting healthy and well.

She listens and connects!

A wonderfully responsive, emotionally intelligent leader. I enjoyed our session.

Julia is amazing, she helped me through one of the roughest periods in my life and showed me what my worth is. She pays attension and makes you feel comfortable. 10 out of 10, would recommend!

She listens well, is intuitive and compassionate

She is just awesome. I have enjoyed talking with her. And I am so looking forward to our sessions every week. She’s just great!

I’ve been through years of therapy with many different counselors and Julia has by far been the best. She has always been honest, open minded, unbiased, and caring. I always feel that she is there for me even though I’ve never met her in real life. She is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met and i really respect her and appreciate the respect and effort she’s put into me.

Julia Garafola is very supportive. She’s a good listener and that makes it very easy to talk to her. I enjoy talking to her and I usually feel 100% better after our conversations.

She makes me feel special, like I am a needed person in the world.

She is such a great listener and really helps you work through the problem even when you feel stuck. Julia has helped me work through a difficult time in my life by actively listening and sharing her professional experience explained really well.

Julia is such a great listener and guides you to see the truth for all that it is. She is uplifting but also helps you to see where you need to be challenged

Julia is a God send. She helps me with real solutions to help me work through the challenges I face now and those from my past.

She’s great. Really helps me think about my situation on a granular level

I have already shared this around my office for others that may need help. It’s been wonderful.

Julia is really good at helping me help myself! I graduated from some issues a year ago and back to tackle some other stuff this year.

A great therapist, feels like a friend you can talk to after a while. Very helpful in giving nice insight on how one thinks, and gives good advice. Honestly a good person to talk to while sipping some tea, very calming and relaxing.

Julia is a superhero. She got me through my divorce and helped me work out some childhood traumas. I wouldn’t be here without her.

Julia is very relatable and easy to talk to. She has been wonderful helping me to explore the reasons for my breakdown and to find ways to keep busy and correct the patters that lead me here. I hope I will never need a therapist, but if I do, I hope she will be available again.

She is awesome, very kind and thorough. She makes you feel like you matter.

i really feel Julia is helping me

Julia has been my lifeline! I was having a tough time just getting through each day after the death of the two most loved people in my life, my mom and my husband, which happened two months apart. Julia is a kind, compassionate and patient person. She is a best friend and honestly, I don’t know where I would be today without her. Thanks to Julia, I am such a better place and am able to move on with my life. I highly recommend Julia if you are looking for a therapist who is understanding, down-to-earth and truly cares. Thank you Julia!

Thoroughly enjoy Julia’s expertise. She’s been very helpful.

Julia is a professional counselor who has excellent interpersonal skills, a compassionate heart and provides great, non-judgmental advice. I desired a counselor with a Christian focus and Julia has done an excellent job representing a Christian perspective in my counseling sessions. I highly recommend her!

She’s very down to earth and compassionate

Julia is the best! I’ve become comfortable with her and her counsel faster than any of the other four therapists I’ve had in the past. I’m blessed to have her on my team

Julia is sensible, compassionate and supportive. She gives great feedback and so far I’m very happy with our sessions.

My sessions with Julia have been very helpful. I have already recommended Better Help and Julia specifically to other people who might need this service.

This is my first time talking to a therapist and I am so happy with Elva “Julia” Garafola. I was scared I would get a therapist that didn’t have experience in what I wanted to talk about but she did! I like how I can message her and she responds fast! Thank you for all you do.

I was hesitant and nervous to start counseling, but was amazed at how quickly Julia became a friend. I had some nerves before sessions, not wanting to dive into deep feelings and talk about hard things. But Julia has a way of guiding conversation that put me right at ease and I was always so much lighter after speaking with her. She was fun, encouraging, and such a sweet soul. Thank you, Julia for helping me find the good in life again.

Julia is great. She checks on on me which I love and need during the week and it always feels like genuine
