Welcome

Hi, I’m Julia,
I believe that healing happens in connection. I’m here to gently guide you through a personalized therapeutic journey, using trauma-informed care, the grounding power of mindfulness, and the transformative language of expressive arts to help you reclaim your emotional well-being.

“A life truly lived constantly burns away veils of illusion, burns away what is no longer relevant, gradually reveals our essence, until, at last, we are strong enough to stand in our naked truth.”

– Marion Woodman

Healing Beyond Words: A Trauma-informed Approach

I understand that past hurts can leave deep imprints. That’s why my practice is rooted in trauma-informed care, making sure our work together prioritizes your safety, control, and collaboration at every step.

I believe true healing involves more than just cognitive understanding; it requires listening to the wisdom held in your body and nervous system. I utilize highly effective, evidence-based modalities like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), along with practices that build somatic awareness, to gently help you process and release the lingering impact of trauma. My goal is to guide you beyond simply coping, helping you find lasting emotional regulation, deep inner peace, and the ability to live fully in the present.

“Trauma victims cannot recover until they become familiar with and befriend the sensations in their bodies. Physical self-awareness is the first step in releasing the tyranny of the past.”

– Bessel van der Kolk, M.D.

Trauma-informed Yoga

I incorporate gentle, mindful movement to help you to calm your mind and your heart while bringing your body into balance and enahance emotional regulation.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness can help you be in the present moment, which is key to helping you manage stress and your overall health.
