More about Julie

  • 30 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a licensed clinical social worker in California with over 30 years experience helping individuals and couples improve coping, discover better mental and emotional health, and learn to thrive. I especially enjoy working with those suffering from addiction and problematic compulsive behaviors.

I am skilled at helping people identify and understand how past experiences and traumas contribute to their current problems. I can help you see the obstacles to your own success and happiness and work with you to overcome and remove unhelpful thoughts and behaviors getting in the way of true contentment. I don't believe therapy has to last forever. I offer real time solutions to help people overcome old, destructive, patterns of communication and behavior and lead you toward a less stressful, more rewarding and fulfilling life.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
