Hi there! I am a licensed therapist. My work has been primary with children and young adults who have experienced high trauma. My focus has been treating depression, anxiety and other trauma related disorders.
Hi, I’m Julie. I have been a therapist for almost 20 years. I have experience with individuals and families who are living with mental health issues, and I also have extensive experience helping those with substance use problems. If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward, therapy can offer a supportive place to feel understood, begin to recover, and reconnect with yourself.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe healing happens through connection, compassion, and understanding. I partner with clients to explore patterns, build coping skills, and develop greater self-awareness in a supportive and nonjudgmental environment. My goal is to help clients feel more grounded, confident, and aligned with their values.
I can understand first-hand how difficult it can be to reach out for help for the first time. I believe in the importance of "practicing what you preach" and I have been the client in the room who needs extra support. I invite you to give yourself a chance, try something new, and gain a healthy perspective on how to address complicated moments in your life.
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I’ve worked 10+ years in community mental health and social work in the Central Valley. I work with trauma, feeling stuck, depression, anxiety, adhd, relationship challenges.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Salinas
Searching for therapists in Salinas starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for therapy in Salinas for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or life transitions. As you compare Salinas therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show how a therapist describes their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for specific life stages.
In a smaller city like Salinas, local office availability may be more limited than in larger California markets. Virtual sessions can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in California. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before you book can help you understand what sessions may be like and which therapist in Salinas, CA, feels like a practical fit.
Therapy in Salinas can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care more affordable. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who are accepting new patients, see estimated costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care when available. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
