I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with more than 10 years of experience caring for individuals facing a wide range of mental health challenges. Much of my career has been spent in inpatient psychiatry and psychiatric emergency services, where I have supported people during some of the most difficult moments of their lives. These experiences have strengthened my ability to provide compassionate, nonjudgmental care while helping clients navigate complex emotional and mental health concerns. I believe that every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, mood changes, ADHD, or other mental health concerns, my goal is to work alongside you to develop a treatment plan that fits your unique needs and helps you move toward lasting wellness.

Therapist

Virtual • Maryland


Hello, My name is Julia Smail and I am the owner of Spill The Tea Counseling. I believe we all have feelings & thoughts that are waiting to be expressed. Do you find it challenging transitioning through different parts of your life & managing emotions along the way? How about being able to express yourself & be validated in a safe & trusting space? The challenge in life is finding who you are as a person & not what others want you to be. Building a trusting relationship with yourself can lead to strengthening your identity & developing a sense of self through awareness & mindfulness. Transitions can be challenging but beautiful

I am a neurodivergent-affirming therapist who was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult. I provide a safe space to express thoughts & feelings, as well as establish tools to support you in your growth. With various techniques & tools practiced, you will be able to feel mentally, emotionally, & physically balanced as you navigate through life's transitions.
