More about Julia

7 years' experience
Female
LCSW

It takes so much courage to be vulnerable & face the many issues we encounter throughout our lives. Taking the first step to engage in therapy is a win & I am so proud of you for making that initial decision! Situations, people, conflicts, trauma, stress -- can sometimes seem daunting, out of our control, or difficult to resolve. The hardships we go through may force us to neglect ourselves which can result in anger, anxiety, depression, & more. Therapy is a safe & protected space where you can express your feelings, explore changes you want for yourself or want in your relationships. In therapy we can learn tools & coping skills to help you live more freely & positively in your day to day life. Together we can work collaboratively to identify & harness the resilience & strengths you already have. YOU are the expert on you & we can work together to help you move towards healing & growth.

I am licensed in Virginia (LCSW) with 7 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress & anxiety, family conflicts, coping with grief & loss, & motivation, self esteem, & confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, & compassion.

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.
