Individual Counseling
Julia believes that choosing to see a counselor is an act of courage. Therapy is a collaborative process of healing change, an act of self-care.
I believe that therapy is a collaborative process of healing and change. Whether you have tried it before or this is your first venture into counseling, therapy is a form of self-care, and choosing to see a counselor is an act of courage.
Implementing a client-centered and trauma-informed approach, I support clients on their mental health journey through empathic understanding, empowerment, and a belief in their ability to evolve and heal. I value cultural humility, a lifelong process that involves acknowledging my limitations as a counselor, suspension of judgment, meeting clients where they are, and respecting diverse experiences and points of view.
My approach to counseling integrates evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, to support client-centered change.
Julia’s Philosophy of Medicine
I recognize that transformation occurs in a holistic, integrative space created by a commitment to self-care and the support from positive relationships in our community. I believe that little is more transformative than our relationships with those who mean the most to us, and I bring my passion for your healing journey to Village Medicine Seattle.

- Are you sunrise, daylight, twilight, or night? Why?
-
Twilight because it exists in a temporal in-between. I believe so much of life exists in the “both, and.”
- If you could choose your age forever, what age would you choose and why?
-
I suppose my current age! There are things I miss about past ages, but I think the beauty of the things I miss could be tied to how fleetingand precious each moment of life is.
