Julia Sandoval

My communication style

I am easy to talk to and like to keep the atmosphere authentic and real in such a way that the client will feel at ease. I am not a “textbook” type of therapist. There is no superficiality.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always wanted to help people. Even when I was a child, I had visions of myself meeting with others and hearing them talk. Of course, I didn't understand what that meant exactly; however, it was clear to me that I was destined to be a humanitarian.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting by making small accomplishments happen first, then working up to more challenging ones as time goes on. The client is always in control in terms of the level of comfort.

Our first session

To get a strong idea of what the process will “look like” and what to expect. To get an idea of myself and my style. To set a tone for the therapeutic alliance and initiate a rapport. Also, identifying clients' expectations from treatment.

I identify as...

• Female
• Caucasian or White
