Professional statement

Julie Herzlinger is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker at PVD Psychological Associates. She brings 18 years of experience to her work. Julie provides individual therapy to college students, adults, aging adults, and individuals of any life stage experiencing caregiver stress. Her areas of specialization and focus include working with those struggling to navigate life transitions, feeling “stuck,” experiencing relationship and intimacy problems, self-esteem issues, adjustment to illness/caregiver stress, as well as grief and loss. She also has extensive experience working with individuals with addiction, trauma histories and PTSD, anxiety disorders, and mood disorders. Julie is primarily a psychodynamic therapist. She also draws from training in various types of therapy, including relational and strengths-based approaches, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), to most effectively meet the needs of the individual.


Message to clients

My integrative approach and my warm nature allow me to work collaboratively to address clients’ distinct histories, needs and goals. I work with clients to help examine ineffective patterns and reflect on what is preventing them from living life the way they intend. I work best with adults who are interested in personal self-exploration and present-focused change. I meet my clients where they are and regularly check in regarding progress and their experience.

I appreciate your interest in working with me and look forward to connecting to begin this process. Together, we will work to best determine how to confront that which may be inhibiting your ability to feel fully engaged in your life.
