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.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
