Testimonials

"I had a significant trauma in my life when I was a kid and was left with PTSD. After going through many bad experiences with therapists, I thought I'd never get past my issues and shut down. That all changed when Julie started coaching me. She is a real person who builds a relationship with you and actually cares. Instead of dwelling in experiences of the past, Julie has helped me develop coping skills that I can now use independently when I'm feeling anxious or going through a rough time. She is an incredible coach and I would highly, HIGHLY recommend her"~ Kristin

"I have gone to therapy before and never really felt comfortable. Since meeting Julie for coaching she has completely changed my outlook on getting help and support. I felt a connection with her right away and I know she is truly committed to working with me to reach my goals. She is honest, straight forward, and very empathetic. I felt as though I could open up and tell her anything right away without being judged. She is great at listening and giving me the feedback that I need and creating goals for me to reach one step at a time. I highly recommend seeing Julie as a coach! Especially if you have tried regular therapy in the past and it wasn't for you. I look forward to my appointments with her because she is a breath of fresh air and my life is improving a little more each time I see her."~ Heather

"Julie came recommend from my daughter's therapist.  After several years of getting nowhere with my daughter I switched her to Julie. It was like magic!  It went from struggling to get my daughter into the car to go counseling to her asking when she can go see Julie again!   Julie made a connection with my daughter and has helped shape who she is today. Today my daughter is confident, self advocates and is able to manage her anxiety much better and still looks forward to working with Julie once a week!!"~ Julie

"Traditional therapy never worked for me in the past. It felt very one sided. Lots of "hmmmmm" and "tell me more". Now that I am in coaching with Julie I feel like someone is actually listening while actively helping me make progress, not just taking notes. I feel like Julie cares and that is tremendously important for me.~ Jackie

"When I met Julie, I instantly felt a connection. She was someone I could trust, confide in, and truly be myself. Julie was able to empathize with me when I needed it, yet be honest and straightforward when it was appropriate, which was more often than not! She made it very easy to communicate with her, whether in person, on the phone or via text. I feel blessed and lucky to have had her in my life when I needed it most. She remains someone I know will always be there for me when I need it, good or bad."~ Liz

"Julie has been an amazing support to my daughter.  Not only has she helped her deal with issues of anxiety around transitions. She has helped me better understand what my daughter needs.  She always responds to emails and texts in a timely manner and does so with honesty and empathy.  I’d recommend her easily to anyone looking for a coach!"~ Rob

 "Julie’s coaching has been invaluable to me!  As a new parent I have struggled with “learning the ropes” and what is normal and what is not.  Julie is honest and empathetic and open and has helped me understand so much about not only about parenting by myself as well.  I appreciate her guidance and would recommend her whole heartedly to anyone looking for a coach to help them sort things out and “see” more clearly."~Franchesca  

"Julie was my childhood therapist. She saw what was going on with me before anyone else did. In fact she was the only one who knew how to talk about it. She never focused on the diagnosis rather she looked at me as a person. What my strengths and weaknesses were. I was excited when I found out that she switched to coaching because she has always been the person I feel like I can talk to about anything and everything.  Now as an adult when I meet with her I talk to her about everyday things that I want to shift or change and appreciate her advice. We have used Art therapy together. Art therapy is an amazing very beneficial form of therapy. Since she has shown it to me I myself want to be an art therapist. Her presence and caring nature has and continues to guide me."~ Sydney

"Julie has been helping me since I  was a freshman in high school. She has helped me when I feel stuck and unsure in life. Then I went to college and lost connection but I wanted to see someone again to get some guidance and help thinking through my career and college path. Julie was on of the only person I trustedand when I went back the relationship felt the same as before."~ Nate

"Being a single mom of 3 kids is tough in itself..but when my son started having outbursts and behavior issues Julie was a life saver...with her guidance and help we were able to figure out ways to have few and  far between outbursts and coping skills that have helped the 4 of us live happier lives...Julie's honest open and real conversations were a breath of fresh air.. feeling like we were being looked and  listened to as individual real people rather than scenarios from a textbook.. Implementing Julies real life relatable concepts have been extremely helpful in our every day lives."~Michelle

"My daughter has been seeing Julie for over three years and she has helped her become a happy person. Before that she wasn't social and didn't want to do anything including go to her senior year of high school. Now with Julie by her side, my daughter has accomplished so much; she is in a band singing, she has had clothing that she designed and made herself in two fashion shows and she's in school for music production. Julie is understanding of her feelings, she gets my daughter, and she is there to answer any questions or text my daughter back whenever she needs her.  I could go on an on about how wonderful Julie is. She truly feels for her clients. I would recommend her to anyone. She is wonderful."~Wendy

"I absolutely trust Julie. She showstremendous amount of consideration for me. I see her more than a coach but also as a confidant. When I first came to see Julie I was unsure of how she would handle my horrible situation. I was a wreck and extremely sensitive. I have come a long way because of her support. I am a healthier and happy individual."~ Haily

"Julie is great at listening, picking up on body language, and sensitive to the temperament of the room. What I love about her style is that she understands that self-awareness is an important skill. We need to be honest with ourselves. She gives me that direction by being straightforward and direct with me. Yet her fun and easy-going personality creates a non Judgemental atmosphere, which makes it easier to talk and accept the harder things. We have conversation, we discuss. I have learned a lot and she has allowed me to work and reach a level of confidence I lost years ago. I have been very lucky to have found Julie. I can't imagine where I would be today without the support and her professional insight."~ Kelly

"The first time I met with Julie I instantly felt comfortable.  She is an open, down to earth, "real" person.  She is direct, and honest with her insight but always in a kind way. Most importantly she is empathetic and non-judgmental. She has really helped me break things down/put things into perspective so life doesn't feel as overwhelming.  I have had therapy in the past but the coaching is great because it is more like a support system/ someone to bounce things off of but she also challenges me and has helped me look at things differently. I would highly recommend her to anyonelooking for some guidance and direction."~Kristine

"I am truly grateful that Julie provided support and guidance to my daughter during a very challenging time for her and for our family. She was a sounding board and a shoulder to cry on and ultimately the voice of insight and reason. She is truly compassionate professional."~ Sia

"When I first met Julie I was in a very stuck place. Julie broke down my walls in a way that nobody else could. She spoke to me with honesty and listened without judgment. She made herself available via phone and text, which helped me tremendously. Julie is still helping me today, listening to my problems and working with me to come up with solutions. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a professional, yet caring coach."~ Stephanie

"Julie is friendly and dedicated to her clients.  She's easy to reach and has an amazing ability to read people and connect with them. She's guided me through career bumps, personal difficulty and has helped provide guidance and clarity with my teenagers.  Anytime I need guidance or even an ear, Julie is always someone I can count on. She's a blessing."~Claire

"Julie is a life saver. She is empathetic and incredibly knowledgeable. She is amazing at what she does. She is not a long white coat with a clipboard. She is the only person who cared enough to make progress with me when everyone else was quick to label me."~Scott

"I have been to a few helping providers in my time and not once did I stay for more then two visits. The first time I sat in Julie's office we actually lost track of time because if felt as though I was talking to a good friend. Julie has helped me over the past few years to learn how to react according to the situation that I am in. My fiance' also sees her separately and we have consults together. It works. She is amazing and I would recommend her to anyone."~Rebecca

"I cannot begin to describe how amazing and helpful Julie is. I have had bad experiences in the past with other coaches/counselors and was hesitant to try yet one more person. Five years later, Julie has been the compass who has helped me through the most difficult times of my life. She is different from other coaches/counselors. She goes all in and above and beyond to guide me through crises and always checks in in between. Julie is a real person who genuinely cares about me and all of her clients and it makes all the difference. She is not the type to sit back and just listen, take notes, and just ask me over and over "And how does that make you feel?" Instead, she has authentic conversations and helps me to develop my own coping skills through giving me tools to get me through tough situations. At the same time she gives me honest, useful advice that I can apply immediately. I honestly do not know where I would be in my life right now without Julie's guidance. I strongly, strongly recommend her to anyone!!!"~ Pam A

"Finding a coach that you feel comfortable being 100% yourself with is not easy. I have had a variety of coaches that I have worked with in the past but Julie has stood out among them all. Reason being, when I speak with her, I do not feel judged in any way. I am able to speak openly and work on the topics I want to focus on. She is able to pick up on my energy levels and my body signals, which allows me to understand myself more holistically and in a deep-rooted way. I hope others will have the pleasure of working with Julie and have a safe space to be themselves and find themselves - fulfilled and optimistic. I feel very lucky to have met such a talented and personable coach."~ Nancy 

" I highly recommend Julie to anyone who is ready to so some work to better themselves or help manage the overwhelming stresses in your life. What I like most about her is that she is real and down to earth, direct and honest but never in a judgmental way. She has helped me tremendously!" -Kristine
