Meet Julia: fueled by pour-over coffee with a splash of milk and a dusting of cinnamon (and, on a lucky day, an Americano with cream and sugar). Her dog Lily is a rescued hound–pit mix—named simply because Julia loves an “L” name and Lily is as lovely as the flower. In the therapy room, Julia’s hope is that you leave feeling more hopeful and more compassionate—about yourself and the world around you. She wants clients to know she believes in their goodness, their beauty, and the value of their life—often serving as a mirror when they can’t see it for themselves yet (and if she can help you laugh, that’s a bonus). If she could have lunch with anyone, it would be Dolly Parton—talented, hilarious, generous, brilliant, and unapologetically herself. This year, Julia’s working on building holistic capacity—creating more space to follow through, serve more, love more, move faster and farther, and feel more at ease in the places she shows up. And one thing she’ll tell you plainly: like her clients, she’s in progress—always learning, always stretching, grateful to be human alongside the people she works with.
