Leadership & Career Counseling
As a leader, you’re driven to succeed—but personal obstacles, stress, and self-doubt can sometimes hold you back.

Mothers & Women’s Mental Health
Women face unique challenges throughout life. The journey of motherhood—whether navigating a traumatic birth, a NICU stay, or parenting a child with chronic medical needs—can feel overwhelming. I provide compassionate support to help women manage these experiences, find balance, and care for their mental health. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or the identity shifts of motherhood, you don’t have to go through it alone. Together, we can help you find clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being.

MEET YOUR Counselor
Julia Johnson
Licensed Mental Health Counselor
As a counselor, my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. I believe that every person is unique, which is why I tailor my approach to meet your individual needs. Whether you’re navigating life’s challenges, working through past experiences, or striving for personal growth, I’m here to walk alongside you.
I integrate evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), person-centered therapy, and the Gottman Method, to help you gain insight, build resilience, and foster meaningful connections. I also draw on existential and developmental theories to explore your deeper sense of purpose and life’s transitions.
We’ll work toward your goals at a pace that feels right for you. I hope to empower you with tools and strategies to navigate life with greater clarity and confidence.
