Meet Julia
I am a licensed marriage & family therapist as well as a licensed alcohol and drug counselor.
I have extensive experience helping individuals, couples, and families sort through grief and loss, trauma, addiction, family conflict and other interpersonal issues, and navigate the sometimes choppy waters of separation/divorce. Learning respectful and effective communication skills is often part of my approach. Mindfulness is important to me personally and professionally, and I have been trained in DBT, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, and Gottman Therapy for couples.
My style is collaborative and client-centered as we co-create goals within a safe and supportive space. Additionally, I bring to my practice years of life experience. In my previous career as a writer and editor, I published a local newspaper, The Phoenix Spirit, which focused on mental health and recovery. My husband and I have raised two sons, two dogs, a couple of cats, three birds, and a rabbit, though not necessarily at the same time!
