Dr. Julie Jensen

Psychiatrist

Virtual & in-person • 9.6 mi away • Savannah, GA


Welcome! My goal is to partner with families to help clients live happy, healthy lives. Whether you've experienced side effects from medication or haven't seen the progress you hoped for, I'm here to work with you toward a solution.

Finding the right medication is only part of the picture — truly understanding what's happening in your life matters just as much. That's why I incorporate brief, solution-focused therapy into every visit and make a point of staying in close communication with your other providers.

As a child and adolescent psychiatrist, I have extensive training and experience treating ADHD, anxiety, depression, and a range of other behavioral health challenges. I also enjoy working with young adults in their twenties who are navigating the unique transitions and challenges that come with that stage of life.

I have a special interest in women's health — particularly during the perinatal period and menopause — as well as the unique needs of healthcare workers.

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Savannah

Finding family therapists in Savannah starts with naming what your family wants support with. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication patterns, and stress during major life changes. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, which means they look at how family members interact, communicate, and respond to one another. As you compare Savannah therapists, read each bio for training in family systems, marriage and family therapy, parenting support, or adolescent care.

In a smaller city like Savannah, the number of local in-person options may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you work with a Georgia-licensed therapist. Consider how sessions may be structured, since family therapy may include the full family, parent-child sessions, couples sessions, or individual family members at different points. Before booking, review availability, session format, and whether the therapist offers a free phone consultation to discuss fit and structure upfront.

Therapy in Savannah can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can use Headway to compare family therapists in Savannah, review bios, check availability, and book directly with someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is accepting new patients.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
