Julie has gotten me through the worst time in my life and continues help me through all the difficulties that pop up in life. I could never thank her enough for being someone I know is always in my corner to support me. I’m afraid to think where I’d be without her.

More about Julie

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LICSW

I am licensed in Minnesota with 20 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, parenting issues, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I am particularly passionate about helping women who may be experiencing personal or marital difficulties, or the after effects of a divorce and trying to regain themselves. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

My schedule is typically open in the later afternoons and evenings (primarily Wednesdays with a few scattered in throughout the week), and occasionally on Sundays in the late evening.

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.
