More about Julie
- 30 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a licensed clinical social worker in California with over 30 years experience helping individuals and couples improve coping, discover better mental and emotional health, and learn to thrive. I especially enjoy working with those suffering from addiction and problematic compulsive behaviors.
I am skilled at helping people identify and understand how past experiences and traumas contribute to their current problems. I can help you see the obstacles to your own success and happiness and work with you to overcome and remove unhelpful thoughts and behaviors getting in the way of true contentment. I don't believe therapy has to last forever. I offer real time solutions to help people overcome old, destructive, patterns of communication and behavior and lead you toward a less stressful, more rewarding and fulfilling life.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
