Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker
Hi! I’m Julie, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker at our Edmonds clinic!
I have worked with individuals, couples, and families across many different settings, from the child welfare system in New York City, to families enrolled in the cancer care clinical trials at Seattle Children’s Hospital, and most recently in private practice. I love people, and in my clinical work I think it is so important to get to know the person in front of me to be able to support them on their own unique journey. I believe my client is the expert on their experience, and I’m here to help guide them to finding the tools and support that works best for them.
I use a mix of Emotionally Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a Systems-Based lens, and a strengths-based approach to ensure my clients have access to the tools and resources they need to create the life and relationships that will help them thrive.
I believe that vulnerability is a strength and when we accept and hold gently the most tender parts of ourselves, real change is possible. I think recognizing there is a need for support and reaching out to start a new journey are some of the bravest things we can do. I look forward to getting to know you!
