Professional statement

Julia graduated from the University of Southern California MFT program in 2014 and has worked with youth and their families in Los Angeles ever since. Adults and young people who are struggling with depression, stress, self-esteem, life transitions and parenting have found Julia to be helpful. Julia is also a parent to young children.

Julia uses an eclectic approach to treatment, drawing techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (for Borderline Personality Disorder), Exposure Response Prevention (for OCD), Seeking Safety (for trauma and substance use), attachment theories, family systems and the Positive Parenting Program. Julia is warm and strengths-based.

Message to clients

A little bit about how I work: I've found that identifying thinking issues (also sometimes referred to as "cognitive distortions" or "thinking mistakes") is a really important part of figuring out why you don't feel good emotionally. I believe we can change our mood by changing our self-talk. I also think it's crucial to examine your early childhood experiences to understand your coping and relationship habits that aren't working.

I always strive to help people reduce feelings of distress, replace unhelpful habits with more adaptive ones, and improve connection with their loved ones. I'm confident that I can help you reach your goals.
