Hey there, my name is Julia and I earned my LICSW (Licensed Independent Social Worker) degree 15 years ago in Massachusetts. I have experience in helping clients (mainly young adults) with stress, anxiety, depression, coping with life changes as well as motivation, self esteem and confidence.
I want to acknowledge and honor your efforts to reach out for support. I agree that you deserve it and I’m glad you know you don’t have to continue feeling this way. If you’re looking for a genuinely warm, collaborative and structured therapist, I may be a great fit for you as you work towards your goals.
I’m trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) so I work with clients to identify negative/unhelpful thoughts that contribute to negative and overwhelming emotions. Together, we will work to unlearn those thoughts and beliefs, and replace them with more reality-based and helpful thoughts and beliefs. Over time, you will feel more in control and experience an improved mood overall.
I carry a lot of hope for my clients and see progress towards their goals especially when they are able to continue the work outside of therapy sessions. Thus, in an effort to set you up for a better week in between our sessions, each time we meet we’ll determine together what action steps will get you closer towards your goals between sessions as well. Additionally, I am available to message between sessions and I will typically follow up with clients within 24 hours.
If you’re ready to partner with a therapist who will be supportive and encouraging during this difficult and important work, I encourage you to schedule a video session so we can begin our work together and you can start feeling better- as you need and deserve.

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.
