About me and my therapy practice
Testimonials:
- Julie is a great listening with years of experience to draw upon with her recommendations, she hears what is being said much deeper than what is being said and so is able to bring to your attention some things you may have missed when considering your predicament. I look forward to sessions with Julie and am grateful she is on the platform.
- Julie has really helped me gain clarity during tough times. She is a great listener & understands my lifestyle as a professional musician. I feel very comfortable with her & it feels like we are hanging out!
