Hi, I'm Julia
Yes, mom, it's not a phase...
Knees weak, arms are heavy, but definitely not mom's spaghetti... what I'm describing here are the constant, daily anxiety attacks that I had stemming from no external source other then the stressors in myself.
Choosing to overcome it, sent me spiraling more often than I thought it would. What reeled me back was my curiosity and love for self-development. It let me create "recipes" for getting through the tough moments, steps for working through so many beliefs, and creating frameworks for evolving.
All which have inspired the Flourish Formula.
Professionally, my work is rooted in psychotherapy, supported by a Master of Social Work. This path has immersed me in diverse communities and stories (far beyond what a traditional Psychology track often allows) teaching me over and over that there is no single way a life is “supposed” to look.
Before that, I spent years as a Sonographer in the medical field witnessing multitudes of suffering and hearing life stories during appointments.
And these experiences led me to a deep respect for the complexity of simply being human.
Now, I'm here for you. Let's begin.
Not Flourishing?
Let me know what will help you the most & I'll let you know when there's a new arrival in that category. Your vote also helps me know what content and mirror work will be more insightful, so I'll double down on providing support, creating resources, etc. that will benefit everyone!
"Julia has been the mirror I didn’t realize I needed. For a while I’ve struggled with decision-making that tended to spiral into second-guessing and imposter syndrome. Talking with her slows down the noise in my head and helps me sort through my thoughts until I can actually hear my own voice beneath everyone else’s expectations. She connects dots I never would’ve seen on my own and reflects back strengths that I had minimized or dismissed.
Julia views the chaos of life with a beautiful combination of compassion and honesty. She has helped me learn to recognize my patterns, honor how far I’ve come, and make choices from a grounded place rather than fear. It’s because of her that I now speak to myself differently. I show up more honestly in my relationships and feel more capable of choosing my own path. The safe space she provides for me and others is rare and deeply healing, and I don’t know how I would have navigated this season of my life without her."
