Did you experience trauma in childhood or adolescence? Are you experiencing stress, anxiety, fear, or depression? Do you feel misunderstood by others, judged, or find it challenging to connect with others? Therapy is a safe place where you can understand yourself better and learn to cope with these thoughts and feelings, which may be interfering with your happiness, health, and relationships.

In my 25 years of experience with diverse populations, I have learned that no matter what your story is, you have strengths and potential.

Hi, I’m Julia, and I’m passionate about helping people find strength, clarity, and balance in their lives. I’ve been working in the field for over twenty years, with experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, seniors, and parents through life’s many transitions. I’m a graduate of Columbia University, where I focused on working with children and families. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside clients from many different backgrounds as they work through both everyday stress and life’s biggest challenges.

I believe the structure of the therapeutic relationship can help people access their inner strengths and promote meaningful change. Therapy gives us space to pause, reflect, and make sense of how the different parts of our lives — our relationships, health, identity, and environment — impact our well-being. Together, we’ll sort through challenges, set realistic goals, and develop strategies that help you feel more grounded and empowered.

My name is Patrick. I'm an LCSW practicing in New Jersey that specializes in helping teens and young adults deal with OCD, social and general anxiety, future uncertainty, and low self-esteem.

I understand trauma that doesn't show up on an X-ray. I understand what it means to hold yourself together for everyone else until you simply can't anymore.My practice, Living & Looking Within, serves individuals, couples, children, and families across New Jersey — in person in Woodbridge or via telehealth statewide.
