“Time and time again, Julie ventured into the depths of my wounds with me compassionately, at the right time, knowing how deep to go, how to relate to what came up through the body, helping me find a deeper embodied senses of resolution and peace than I had experienced in a very long time. I’m not exaggerating when I say that every session led me through an arc, and by the end of each session, I felt reassured in my body and a greater sense of empowerment in handling the inevitable stressors of life. I approached my life with more grit and ease, took more risks, knew more clearly when to set my personal boundaries, and identified which relationships were supporting my health and happiness.”

“What Julie offers is really very valuable for learning simple and effective strategies useful for all people to employ in times of stress. These skills are a serious level up for all types of interpersonal relationships, be they romantic, familial, work or school related, or even for mental and athletic performance. Julie helped put the spotlight on the essential dynamics of how the energetic flow of our nervous system is not something to try to control. Instead, she showed us how to get in tune with those energies and through that attunement we can consciously be present with how to embody them without being overwhelmed. I highly recommend Julie’s professional expertise and services and look forward to working with her again in the future!”

“SE with Julie was game changing, and the missing ingredient in my healing process. It took feeling what a settled nervous system is like to start noticing more clearly when I was activated or shut down. I started to be able to tell when something activated a survival response in me, even subtly, I had tools to move through it into groundedness and clarity, and the felt sense to know when I had actually succeeded. When I felt anxious or unmotivated, I could approach myself with more compassion, seeing these feelings for the “nervous system injuries” that they were instead of character flaws. Julie taught me nervous system literacy, and equipped with that literacy, so much of my life changed. Her understanding of nervous systems and her patient compassion earned my trust almost immediately. She truly has a gift.”

“Working with Julie in the realm of dream work was a profoundly enriching experience. Julie brings a grounded wisdom and a deep, intuitive presence that created a sacred space for exploration and transformation. Her kindness, attentive listening, and heartfelt guidance allowed me to connect more deeply with the messages of my dreams. Julie has a rare gift for tuning into the subtle, symbolic language of the soul and I’m deeply grateful for the clarity and healing that emerged throughout sessions. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”

“My session with Julie shifted the relationship I have with my dreams. In the past they have been a source of anxiety and fear, but in session I connected with them as a resource and source of support. She called my attention to things I wouldn’t have paid attention to or thought were important. She helped me connect to feelings of accomplishment, simplicity, and presence within the dream I was completely unaware of. After our session I felt as if a layer of cold, icy grief had melted from my body. I could move with more ease and breathe deeper- I felt a tangible sense of relief.”

“Julie is a grounding force as I explore my dreams, anxieties, and over analytical mind. She has, many times, guided me inwards to a place where I exist in multitudes. She keeps watch as I lower myself into a well of my traumas, and she reminds me that I am here, she is here, and I can come up for air whenever I need to. She is attentive, wise, empathetic, and a true seer. I have much respect, admiration, and appreciation for her practice. I have felt more authentic, and life has been more joyful with the self-understanding and wisdom I have gained from working together.”

“Julie’s somatic skills class was rich with exploration, curiosity, and guidance to understand my own unique nervous system. She holds space with such thoughtful care and is incredibly empowering in her approach. She practiced careful listening, thoughtful reflection, and a guiding light to get in touch with my own body’s wisdom. I would highly recommend working with Julie!”

“Julie is insightful and engaged and curious, as well as respectful and gentle and talented! Her questions lead me down pathways I could never have come to on my own. Before working together on my dreams, I previously didn’t know what to make of them or how to relate to them more intimately. However, as we work together, I find myself more intrigued and charmed by the depth of my dreams, drawn into fascination alongside Julie, parsing what they are there to point to.”

“Working with Julie has been such a valuable experience. I had no idea that dreamwork could be such a window into my day to day patterns and conditioning. Julie so expertly and compassionately guides me to the gold. I understand now how much dreams have to offer us, and how much medicine is available in them. Julie is such a skilled practitioner and it is so clear that she loves this work, making her sessions all the more potent. I so highly recommend working with her!”
