Practice information:

Hello, my name is Julia, and I'm a Registered Clinical Counsellor. I specialize in helping clients with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, life transitions, parenting support, health, relationship concerns, and emotional regulation. Additionally, I have a passion for working with neurodiverse folks and deepening introspection and coping with the specific challenges associated with adult ADHD, Autism,  and executive dysfunctions.

I believe that people make sense of their worlds in unique ways and that there is no one-size-fits-all counselling approach. Creating a safe, non-judgmental, and collaborative space is essential for therapeutic change. This space allows clients to explore their sense of self and express difficult emotions. I use an empathic approach to understand my clients and work with them to develop resilience, healing, and skill development that can be utilized long after therapy is complete.

I take an eclectic and trauma-informed approach to therapy, drawing from modalities such as narrative therapy, attachment theory, emotion-focused therapy, feminist theory, and behavioral psychology to create a customized treatment plan for each client. I'm a Registered Clinical Counsellor with a Masters of Counselling Psychology. I have taken foundational training in ADHD management, parent support coaching, emotion-focused therapy, and narrative therapy. 

I offer both in-person counseling at East Vancouver Counselling on Commercial Drive in Vancouver (booking link in my profile) and virtual sessions. When I'm not counselling clients, I'm parenting my two small children, reading books, working on various art projects and dreaming.

I look forward to connecting with you and being a part of your counselling journey.
