Meet Julie

Julie McGlynn, Ms

“Each of us is unique in how we are shaped by our environments and how we show up in our relationships.”

I work with individuals and couples who have been experiencing struggles with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, and life transitions. In therapy, I want to provide a space to help you make choices that can lead to feeling more fulfilled in your life and in your relationships. Empathy, compassion, and connection are integral in the therapeutic setting, and it would be my honor to be a part of your journey of self-discovery and healing.

I take a systemic, strengths-based approach to the therapeutic process recognizing that your story is unique and fits within a societal, systemic framework. I will listen to your story with empathy, help you identify and clarify patterns, and work with you to create a future that best suits you. We will look at the symptoms of an issue and focus on how to create solutions while uncovering and healing the root cause of the problem. This is how we will bring understanding to the challenges that have led to you feeling stuck or hopeless. I understand how scary making a change can be. Doing what’s best for us often isn’t easy but together we can chart a course that is personally meaningful for you. 

Focus Areas:

I am passionate about working with adults, adolescents, couples, and families who are seeking to overcome challenges with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, and life transitions. As a therapist, I am warm, direct, and empathetic. I believe in honoring your experiences and adapting my approach to the needs of each individual, couple, and family. Together we will uncover your values and I will help you build a life in accordance with those values. I’m excited to support you on your journey of healing and growth.
