Hi there, I'm Julie!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) in MD, I offer support for adults and adolescents dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and life transitions. I am especially passionate about supporting people through difficult challenges. Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, but it's an act of courage and self-care.

My focus

I work with adults, adolescents, and parents dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and life transitions. I am especially passionate about supporting people through difficult challenges, including older teens and young adults navigating identity, relationships, and self-acceptance.

My approach

My approach is empathetic, collaborative, and solution-focused. I believe in creating a strong therapeutic alliance where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to take meaningful steps towards positive change. I lean on strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) to help clients meet their goals.
